If you want to be a good and prepared photographer, you need to take the person or the event that you are shooting just as seriously as the person or event that you will be taking pictures of. Before a wedding, for example, you will want to mentally prepare yourself for all of the possible scenarios that are going to take place. You also want to triple check that you have everything that you could possibly need to make the shoot go as smoothly as possible.
Key Takeaways:
- All of the best photographers in the world have one thing in common: preparation.
- There is the usual pre-production and planning insanity that accompanies every big job that must be ironed out: schedules, models, equipment, assistants, art directors, designers.
- You should always work on a job as though you’re working on the biggest client of your life-when any job comes around, you’ll already be in the mindset.
“While there’s no magic formula, there are plenty of things every photographer can start doing today to be ready for that call from Vogue when it comes.”
