Luval said:Hi there Tunk loong ,
Hearing what you have mentioned above really bring the warmth out from my heart.
I do know of fashion photographer who have trained/ guided some new photographer and have spent the whole day teaching them who asking for much amount of fee. These are people with a passion in photography and the hear to share what they have learn to the rest .
If ever there is an opportunity. I would really want to learn from you .
Then again back to the topic .
Yes, It true that the model have the best from all/ many photographer and it also very exhuastive for the model as well. It not about the $ that Does the talking. To many of us , I believe. There will be photographers that will be willing to give this a try and at the same time the organiser have to rethink what is he /she asking for without an atitude. It just doesnt bring out the professionalism in you .
To the organiser ..
Ups for you
Do also PM me some of the details and see if I cld be of any help to you.
a little bit of both. esp. when he/she has a cranky client. :bsmilie:Divine_Monk said:Photography is an art and it is a science. Commercial/Professional photography is very different from photography as a hobby. Having a camera and walking around with it doesn't make you a professional photographer. Neither does basic skills with photoshop cut it.
It is indeed sad for our local industry if ppl share your kind of view that "oh, let me learn some tricks from some experienced photographer and that will be fine". Thats not passion, thats complacency.
We will then only be able to see crap standard because nobody will understand the true art form behind photography, as it is unlikely your "instructor" will cover it during his training for you.
So is the photographer a mechanic or an artist then? I duno...

i wonder wat has cs become...no offences here as am a newbie myself..wildstallion said:Ok, i just have one point, if someone already owns their own studio, dont you think they dont need to expand their portfolio anymore by offering free work?
Again, CS is a fishing site for free photographers, its such a shame :cry: :thumbsd:

When I do a commercial shoot, my payment is money.
When I shoot for TFCD, my payment are the images.
When I shoot for charity, my payment is the knowledge that I'm helping someone lead a better life.

I would say the same thing also.....
I pay you with my images I did for you, or you pay me $$$ for the my images I did for you.
