How you can become a Los Angeles Wedding Photographer
Have you always expressed an interest in photography? Have you been considering a career change into the field? If so why not change your hobby into your life’s work and consider becoming a Los Angeles wedding photographer? Wedding photographers never work the same day twice and utilize their skills and are challenged creatively every working day. Continue reading to find out more information on how you can work as a Los Angeles Wedding Photographer.
The first thing you want to do is take some photography and business courses. Most likely you have already taken a photography course before, but an important thing to remember is that technology is always changing, and living in a digital age that means it is important to keep yourself informed and up-to-date on all new photo software and equipment. Business courses will benefit you when you start actually booking jobs and starting your photography business. You will need to know what to charge, how to make a decent profit, and how to handle your business finances.
Once you have taken your courses and are confident in your craft you have to start getting your name out there and booking jobs. A great way to start booking jobs is working through family and friends. Let them know about your talent and have a portfolio ready for them to look at, in addition to price listing. When putting together a portfolio it is your time to set yourself a part from all of the other LA wedding photographers. Try taking a different approach than traditional wedding photography and really make yourself stand out. Another way to get noticed is to enter photography competitions. By showing potential clients awards and honors you have won through your craft will really make a good and lasting impression on them.
A couples wedding day is one of the biggest days in their lives, so they are going to want a professional. Word of mouth is the best form of advertising so always be professional and do your best. Remember when you are a wedding photographer you work almost every weekend and you can never take a sick day. You also must be able to remain calm and undistracted around stressed people because on wedding days before the ceremony starts everyone around you will most likely be in a tizzy making sure everything runs smoothly. The most important detail all Los Angeles wedding photographers must never forget is to always have extra equipment on hand in case something breaks, or ends up not working properly.

A Constructed View: The Architectural Photography of Julius Shulman $30.28 Julius Shulman, one of the great master of architectural photography, is the preeminent recoreder of early California modernism. By 1927, when he was sixteen, Shulman was already using the family Brownie box camera to document his Southern Californis surroundings and experiences; in 1936, his professional career was launched when he sent Richard Neutra some uncommissioned photographs of the architect’s Kun House. Shulman went on to document the famous Case Study House Program (architects included Charles and Ray Eames, Pierre Koenig, and Eero Saarinen) and also the architecure of the 1930s through the 1980s, especially that of Southern California, but also country and worldwide. His subjects included the buildings of R.M. Schindler, John Lautner, Raphael Soriano, Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies van der Rohe, Oscar Niemeyer, among many others. Through his work, Shulman defined the image of Los Angeles and framed the architecture of the time for a global audience. In addition to an overview of Shulman’s career and photographic oevre, this book emphasizes Shulman’s method of “constructing” photographic views. These contructions, which complemented his innate ability to compose striking photographs, often transcends reality to capture the spirit, time and place of a work of architecture. An analysis of architecture’s visual presentation examines not only the media of the era—John Entenza’s Arts & Architecture, for instance—but also the work of Shulman’s photographic contemporaries. |

Accidental Millionaire: How to Succeed in Life without Really Trying $14.95 The Accidental Millionaire is the memoir of Gary Fong, would-be slacker who revolutionized wedding photography, inventor of popular photography aids, entrepreneur, contrarian, bon vivant and a man who really, really didn’t want to become a doctor. A first-generation Chinese-American, Gary was raised in one of Los Angeles’ least-desirable neighborhoods and was forced to deal?in his own quirky and often very funny way?with the burdens of poverty, crime and his parents’ relentless aspirations. These issues almost overwhelmed him until he had a dramatic epiphany. Spotting a bumper sticker that read “Since I gave up hope, I feel much better,” Gary promptly did just that.He stopped trying and started succeeding. At turns hilarious, insightful and instructive, The Accidental Millionaire is Horatio Alger-meets-David Sedaris. Turning the traditional self-help principles upside down, The Accidental Millionaire disdains the goal-oriented approaches of traditional self-help philosophies. Sometimes not knowing where you are going is the best possible way to get there. |
