037: What It Really Takes To Be A Good Photographer

October 17, 2016 Raymond Hatfield
how-to-be-a-good-photographer-podcast

This Week is a little different. Indianapolis Wedding Photographer Raymond Hatfield talks about what it takes to be a good photographer. When I got a message from Lorena, a fellow listener asking "If gear doesn't make you a good photographer, what does?" I knew I had missed something in the podcast. If she was asking this question Im sure you are too! So I pushed this weeks episode back to release this one first because it ties in too well to next weeks episode! 

In This Episode you'll learn:

  • What Raymond was up to this week
  • Some struggles I have found with the Gear 360 for Engagement Photography
  • What I would do if I had a bad Engagement session
  • We get some shout outs on the podcast!
  • I talk about the Beginner Photography Podcast new Instagram Stories
  • What it takes to be a good photographer
  • What is more important in photography than gear
  • Why Photoshop won't make you a better photographer
  • Why posting couples won't make you a better photographer
  • How Cameras work
  • Why Gear won't give you a shortcut to being a good photographer
  • The 2 core concepts of photography
  • What makes a great photo
  • Why photography is so subjective
  • How to get better technical knowledge 
  • Why you need to go out and shoot more!
