Tips for those who want to become a photographer

Are you thinking about learning the profession of a photographer? ⠀ Then I will share my professional experience and give simple recommendations. ⠀ 📌Decide on the direction. Find the niche that you like: portrait, wedding, advertising photography, food photography, etc. Look for yourself! Get ready to compete and be ready to become the best. The number of photographers is increasing every day… 📌Professional equipment requires significant financial costs. 📌Constantly develop, improve your skills, study, work on your style. Promote yourself. It may take months or years. Earn customers, look for different models and take pictures as much as possible. Keep social networks regularly. Rails, stories, posts… At first, you should not hope for stable employment and financial freedom. ⠀ Ph: @safronovajv Md: @safronoviv_photo Car: @delimobil ⠀

Is there a ceiling in development?

In my opinion, the ceiling in development exists only when we limit ourselves and drive ourselves into the framework. ⠀ If the person 💪 ready to overcome your inner barriers, 👎 destructive beliefs, think versatile, 🔎find alternatives 📚 learn and develop, the opportunities for growth will be more than enough… ⠀ Think about the fact that our surrounding world is so multifaceted, it will not be enough to know it for a lifetime…

A lot depends on us, friends! So why not become those who can break through any ceiling?

What do you think about this? I will be glad to hear your comments 😉 ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo ⠀

Why can't you do without taking photos in the summer

Summer is a small life. And it's also the most successful time of the year in terms of creating bright and juicy pictures. ⠀ On the skin – a light tan, in the eyes 🤩shine, a breeze is responsible for the hairstyle… What could be better than natural beauty? ⠀ Relaxed atmosphere ✨ happiness, sun, relaxation 🏖 and fine days must be reflected in the photo 📸 ⠀ Dear friends, I invite you to a sunny photo shoot. Give yourself a great mood that will be imprinted on a long memory ♥️ ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo Md: @Nastyavinogradovvva Loc: @pixel24.ru ⠀

🤔 Decisions and elections

Our whole life is a series of decisions and choices. In general, to make a decision, you need to understand personal responsibility. No one knows you better than you do, respectively, and what decision will be right for you. ⠀ To look at the situation objectively, I often resort to the "Descartes Square" technique, i.e. I prescribe answers to the following questions: 📍What will happen if it happens? 📍 What will happen if it doesn't happen? 📍 What won't happen if the desired happens? 📍 What won't happen if the desired doesn't happen? ⠀ This gives me a complete picture. Here you can see all the pros and cons, as well as possible problems if a decision is not made. Right now, for example, I'm facing a choice: Suzdal and Yaroslavl, we want to go with my wife for a few days to relax. ⠀ Friends, how are things going with the elections? What are the difficulties? Share in the comments 🙏 ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo Md: Anastasia ⠀

Events that irrevocably change life

Each of us has changes in our lives that entail global changes. ⠀ For someone, the turning point was a meeting with a loved one or going to university and starting an independent life, for someone - moving to another city or even to another country, for someone – the birth of children … ⠀ Dear friends, share 💬 in the comments, what events in your life made you change? Or maybe it was words, thoughts that changed your view of this world in seconds? ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo Md: @safronovajv ⠀

Careful! Fake and stolen photos

Most people, when choosing a potential photographer, focus primarily on what the works in his portfolio look like. ⠀ These photos are the photographer's business card. ⠀ The better the portfolio, the easier it is to attract customers, the more likely it is to cooperate with the customer and the higher the price for services. It is logical that everyone wants to show themselves in the most favorable light. Realizing this, some people resort to tricks and use other people's photos in their profile, passing them off as their own. Unfortunately, such cases are not uncommon, and as a person who loves photography with all his heart, it terrifies me … ⠀ Dear photographers, beginners and already experienced, develop your own unique style, improve, treat the profession with love, you can be inspired by the works of talented photographers, but do not pass off their pictures as your own, be honest! ⠀ And to you, dear subscribers, I recommend being more attentive and checking if possible 🧐 the reality of the portfolio of the photographer you plan to work with. ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo Md: @kseniazhdanova Mua: @makeup_style_irina Loc: @wonderstudio ⠀

If fear prevents you from going to a photo shoot

I want to share with you the story of a client who was afraid to come to me. In fact, she was afraid not so much of me as of an uncomfortable environment for herself. ⠀ At such moments, I always clarify: what is missing, what prevents you from relaxing? Believe me, I am the same person who worries before shooting, and I always think about how to establish contact and make the process easy and positive. ⠀ I offered this girl an additional meeting. As a rule, after the dating stage is passed, it becomes much easier to work. We drank coffee, found common topics for conversation, outlined the desired result, and the shyness with fear left. ⠀ Now this girl is my regular customer. ⠀ Do not treat the photo shoot as an exam, imagine that it is a small 🥳 holiday! And I will always help you! ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo ⠀

Summer training

🏃♀️Summer came and, as expected, brought with it the heat. I think because of her, many people do not want to do anything in principle, but what about maintaining their own shape? 🧐 ⠀ 🏃‍♀️It has become much more difficult to keep yourself in good shape. And many trips to the gym become like "from under the stick." What to do in this case? 🤔 ⠀ 🏃‍♀️Doctors recommend giving up sweet, salty and heavy food. Drink a lot of water and take time to rest. Swim only if it's not the peak of the heat outside. And of course not to wander down the street just like that. ⠀ 🏃‍♀️Speaking of doctors. 👨‍⚕️ Every year and for the 43rd time on the third Sunday of June, the day of the medical worker is celebrated! 😁 Let's congratulate all your relatives and friends who are connected with medicine. 🏥 Frankly speaking, thanks to doctors in our lives, we keep our health. ☺️ ⠀ 🏃♀️Do you quit training in the summer? Have you congratulated your medical friends? 🤔 Answer questions in the comments! 😉 ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo ⠀

📑Study in the summer or not📑

📑Enough time has passed since the beginning of the summer period. For most, this period is a time of rest and pleasant pastime, which everyone chooses for himself. You may want a noisy party with friends, or you may prefer to stay at home in silence and pick up a book or turn on a movie. 🎬 The choice is yours! ⠀ But what about studying? Many young people are closing sessions, many are preparing for exams. 💯 In a word, they continue to learn. But what do you think it's worth dedicating the summer to? 🧐 Continue or take a break from studying? 🤔 ⠀ Personally, I continue to study even in the summer. I'm still studying at the New York Institute of Photography. I spend my free days studying, but for me it's just a pleasure. ⠀ How do you spend your summer? What do you prefer to dedicate it to? 🧐 Share your thoughts in the comments! 😉 It will be interesting for me to read each of them :) ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo Md: @a.zgerskaya ⠀

Not so long ago I was thinking about the beginning of my career

My first client was an old friend. She liked the result of filming so much that she joined the ranks of my regular customers. Soon the girl got married, and since then, to be precise – since 2012, I regularly photograph their family. ⠀ It's very easy to sign up for a shoot with me – contact me in any way convenient for you and tell me about your intentions 😉 ⠀ And for novice photographers, I will give the following recommendation, which I adhere to myself: do what you love, and as qualitatively as you would like to get. ⠀ When a person puts his soul into what he does, he becomes happy, and when he is happy ☺️ himself, he makes other people happy… ⠀ Ph: @safronoviv_photo
