The real challenge here is finding clients that support your experimenting and testing and who aren't going to shit their pants when you turn something in that they find less then appealing. Because when you're experimenting and testing, not all of your work is going to set a new standard. Unless your clients support you in this, you'll find yourself kicked to the curb :Oh crap

you know that is not what i meant, that quote was taken out of context.
whether you are a singe engine or multi engine or jet pilot at some point you have tried them all and settle on one of them as your preferred "medium"
many photographers consider natural light to be the odium, perhaps they have made full circle i dont know... any case Eddie's natural light stuff looks great.. we both know how difficult it is with digital, not the same dynamic range as film. highlights blow easy, especially when there are sun streaks on the model and shadows on the other side..
experimenting is great, i agree..i did alot of experimenting initially, now not so much, i think its like finding your "home", sure different style is fun but most often time is spent doing what you do a little better each time.
agree you need supporting clients, and on more than one occasion have i commended on your "experimental" photos, think i even said great to see Deano shoot something different.. |
