How to start a photography business – Education and Training
Photography Education and Training
Let’s assume that you have some photographic skills, either you have a natural talent or you have completed some kind of photography course. If you have not completed a course with a professional institution I would recommend achieving this first before starting your business. There are many privately run courses or visit the TAFE website in your state to search for photography course. TAFE courses also provide training in planning for your business as a photographer. Once you have some photography skills the next thing you need to get is skills in Photoshop CS4 + and or Lightroom. As a photographer ‘in the old days’ with film, skills in the darkroom were needed to develop film and print, now days skills in the digital darkroom are essential. In fact post processing of images will become more time consuming for you that the actual taking of the pictures. It is beyond the scope of this article to teach photographic techniques and Photoshop skills so lets now focus on the business side of things.
