I've now done 3 days at my Ph2o photography work experience, and so far it's going pretty well. I have been taught how to edit photos their way for clients, and I've done a few myself to be printed and handed to clients, which is pretty cool. One of the things they do at the studio is edit different photos together onto one background to present to clients (a 'mix'), and I decided to give it a go with some of my own photos:
I'm quite happy with how it turned out, as I had limited photos with plain studio backgrounds to work with (most of my work is location or with the darker, moody studio lighting). I want to take more studio shots now to do more of these, but I now have no access to a studio over summer as college is closed :( I really wish I had my own!
Apart from work experience, I've had a couple of models-to-be asking if I'll do a TF shoot with them to build their portfolios, which is a compliment I think. I've only ever done TF shoots before, and models I've asked have agreed to do them for me, so I'm happy to do the same now others are asking me.
My cousin has asked me to do her wedding for her next year, which I'm pretty nervous but also excited about - I have a whole year to prepare, but at the same time I don't want to let her down! Hopefully I'll be able to do work shadowing of a wedding or more this year to get a better idea before I do it myself. My work experience boss was a wedding photographer for many years, and he can give me advice as well as a contact that does hundreds of weddings, so I'm hoping I can call him and shadow his weddings every now and then.
Well I think that's everything for now! :)
