Hi folks I hope all is well.
So my photography course finished a few weeks ago and although I believe I leaned a fair amount, I'm starting to think I've only just scratched the surface.
I feel a little lost with it all now if I'm honest. I look on here and see the photographs taken by members and then look at mine and to be honest I get a bit down about it all.
Okay, I've now got an idea about the camera settings but I have no idea about studio work, post production and editing.
I've been watching some videos by catsdog photography (I'm trying to get better at pet photography) but just feel like I'm a million miles away. I'm not interested in making a living from photography I should add, but I have high expectations of myself (regardless of what I'm doing).
I don't think I want to give up as I love going out with my camera, but just feel like, well to be honest that I'm a little pants at taking pictures lol.
I've looked online and there are a couple of well respected photographers local to me (some on here I believe) and wondered if an email to them for some paid 1-2-1 tuition could be an option?
I still consider myself as a complete beginner to this and wondered if anyone here had some advice?
Perhaps I'm just expecting too much of myself?
