Getting Started in Photography


This lecture focussed on the freelance world of photography. The speaker was Paul Hermann, photographer and director of the photography company, Redeye (www.redeye.com.uk). Redeye is a not-for-profit organisation which helps photographers launch careers, get themselves known and find work. They hold regular events and exhibitions along with portfolio clinics to aid in this aspect of their company. Basically, membership into this site will gradually give a photographer they exposure they need. I have looked into joining the site but as of yet I have just taken to following them on twitter - @redeyenetwork, and joined their mailing list. Information that I have gathered from this lecture was that photographic practice is ever changing. It was a very inspirational talk, teaching us to believe in ourselves and never give up faith. It was a good talk and I felt better afterwards but it wasn’t very informative.
