Cameras have come a long way since digital became the "norm," but having an expensive camera with expensive lenses doesn't make you a photographer. No offense to anyone out there, but if you TRULY want to take good photos, you have to put the time and effort into it and REALLY get to know your stuff.
As a photographer, I am constantly learning, on a daily basis, and I don't just mean surfing the internet and looking for shortcuts and tips and tricks or copying other photographers' styles! Being a photographer takes much more than just learning how to use your camera. You may take great shots than you did before with the new equipment you just bought, but snapping away left and right is not what it's all about! I always believe that practice makes perfect, but to be a GREAT photographer, you need to be able to go outside the boundaries and have an artistic talent, and some people just can't "see" the shot. You can take photos all day, at different angles and at different settings, Photoshop the heck out of an image, and STILL not get that award winning shot. Now, by all means, I don't think that I am that award winning, #1 photographer, but I am going in the right direction. I am lucky enough to have the artistic eye in my family, even from before I knew what art was, and I never stopped building on it.
My point is that sometimes if you really want that great shot or great art piece, you have to turn to a professional. A good professional provides experience, ease, valuable consultation, great product and fantastic quality. A good professional will help you avoid the mistakes and take you right to success with your product.
So...... get it done right... GO PRO!!!!
With that, I give you some examples of some great photo sessions I had with some very talented and beautiful people and horses. Thank you so much for your time and your efforts. Every picture you helped me create deserves to be on the cover of a magazine!
