I have just started experimenting with flash for indoor portraits. I love the blurred out background I seemed to have no trouble achieving with natural lighting. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but…Continue

I'm wondering if anyone else feels their computer monitor is less than flattering in regards to clarity and color accuracy. Is there any settings I should look into to see my pictures accurately.…Continue

So I want to buy my first studio lights and I'm trying to decide which route to go. I've decided I do not want to go with continuous lighting. I have been looking into getting 2 ab800 units. I was also looking at something equivalent through promaster. The promasters are less expensive but I don't want to buy something cheap that I will eventually not have a use for. I have no experience using studio lights but I want to learn…See More

Steve Umland replied to Sarah Ludwick's discussion Calling all who have gone to school for photography"Let me start with I don't think everyone needs to attend a photography school. There are photographers who I have known that despite formal education had so much talent that it didn't matter. That being said my feeling is this. There are…"
Daniel Leis replied to Sarah Ludwick's discussion Calling all who have gone to school for photography"Indeed, that sounds like a great idea Sarah! Best of luck! I'm sure you'll do well.

Sarah Ludwick replied to Sarah Ludwick's discussion Calling all who have gone to school for photography"Just as an update... I decided to enroll in the school but in the portrait photography certificate program. This is 39 credit hours versus the 91 of the associate program. It basically includes the essential photography courses and excludes the…"
nathan mccreery replied to Sarah Ludwick's discussion Calling all who have gone to school for photography"Find a larger studio. When I operated a store front studio I always had employees. If they have two or three shooters they'll always have need of someone to do general office staff. In that position you'll be able to see…"
Sarah Ludwick replied to Sarah Ludwick's discussion Calling all who have gone to school for photography"Be careful with them cheerios! Lol! I want to have my own business, that's absolute! It is a huge financial commitment, but I am committed... Don't go sending out your Christmas list though cause I sure can't help you there :) and as…"
Sarah Ludwick replied to Sarah Ludwick's discussion Calling all who have gone to school for photography"I do agree that the business end is the most important aspect and really like the plan you set out. My problem is that I work days and have 3 kids. That's why the online factor was so attractive to me. I say "was" because this is…"
Sarah Ludwick replied to Sarah Ludwick's discussion Calling all who have gone to school for photography"They eventually require you to buy 2 hot lights and other studio lighting. I am seriously reconsidering this while thing. It is an accredited college and includes classes dealing with the business end of photography. The driving force behind this…"

I just cleared out all of my mail and I think that you had sent a message a while back and I never answered you! I am sorry. I took a little break from shooting but not from learning. I have hooked up with several local photography groups and I have been attending everything that I can. If you go to meetup.com you can find groups in your area it has been a tremendous help!! Some time this year I want to get up to Denver or maybe get one of the groups here in Colorado Springs to start doing model shoots!! Check it out, most of them are free but the more intense they get the more likely you will have to spend out some money! TTYL keep in touch!

- Hope all is going well. I have been a little busy and right it's about, well, past my bedtime!! I will be checking back soon. Have you added any new photos?

- Thank you Sarah. I think that you will find most folks in photography are supportive but there are jerks in every crowd. Don't let them get to you. If there is anything useful in what they say use it and discard the rest. You are off to a good start. Don't be afraid to dream and make those dreams a reality through your photographs. I Look forward to seeing more of your work!
