How often do you shoot?
If we don't count the pictures taken during our vacation or the shots I take of the kids regularly, I'm afraid to say I haven't shot in months. I actually haven't had a model shoot yet this year, so I'll end this year without a single model shoot. I've asked in an earlier thread how some people with a full-time job and a family find the time to shoot and haven't found the solution yet. It's so bad that I now start telling models that express an interest in shooting with me that I might take quite a while before I get back to them to schedule a shoot. Maybe next year will be better. Hey, that's a New Year's resolution. Dec 18 05 08:42 pm Link Usually I shoot a couple of times a month. Sometimes less, depending on what comes my way. I'm one of those advanced hobbyist types. I don't have to shoot myself ragged. Dec 18 05 10:47 pm Link I never keep any real track of how often i work. It probably averages out to twice a month or so, though I've had periods where I shot every week for a couple months and one serious dry spell where I didn't shoot at all for a few months. Fortunately there's always plenty of Law + Order on TV for the slow periods. Dec 19 05 03:20 am Link I used to shoot 3 to 4 times a day (depending) when I was in ATL. Now I shoot whenever someone hires me or when the mood or model moves me. Dec 19 05 07:45 am Link Hum, all these professional full-time photographers on here make my shooting schedule look really bad indeed. Finding models and working around my real job are the main drivers in my shooting shcedule. Based on that I am lucky to shoot more that once a month. I, however. do make up for it when I attend events and shoot many models of several short days.

I hate when I don't take pictures..the day sucks when I haven't touched that shutter button. I guess that's just me though since I see a lot of people shoot once a month. Oct 05 06 11:31 am Link |
