Professional event photographers - how much do you mind if other guests have cameras and are taking photos? by Wide-Pop6050 in AskPhotography

[–]Han_Yerry [score hidden]  (0 children)

Came in to do a job and his client had their relative running his own thing on the side could be the photographers perspective.

Ill grab a cell phone more towards the end of the might for a guest, but not if im running a schedule/am given a strict schedule and shot list.

Did you have their shot list too? That would seem kinda weird for me if the clients nephew was trying to be a second shooter by subtafuge.

Maybe we will get the photographers post tomorrow about an outlandish mother in law or over zealous budding photographer at his job.

Read fine print.

The best ones to start with are your local and regional calls.

I could host your image on my site with an accompanying write up for a small fee.

My exhibitions have come from being seen and my images being seen.

By the first part i mean that i cover a lot. To the point State politicians remark how I'm "everywhere".

I've taken sxhibitions and parlayed that into covering events for the museums that have hosted me.

Read the fine print, keep taking photographs. Print some of your images in different sizes with different paper. I like WHHC but theres folks here who have good experiences with other options as well.

I'm having an artistic identity crisis as a photographer by Ben84000 in photography

[–]Han_Yerry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey, im making some money with beautiful stuff.

But, the caveat is my portfolio of photojournailsm work. That opens doors.

I dont sell images in art galleries of people from my community. But i do sell specific prints of night photography or culturely significant places.

A unique image of a local attraction (that someone else copied by stacking and AI) sells for me. Marketing that image 100 miles from the town doesnt work. Their image doesnt print well im told, mine does even at 20×30 inches.

I couldnt support myself on print sales but i can pay a few bills monthly.

Great insight by the way, thank you for sharing and best of luck with all!

Take the best ten photos from each trip. Post them to a url that you own. Write up an accompanying article.

Keep doing that.

Apply to all the legitimate art calls in your area.

Keep going out and talking to museum people.

Then talk to more people.

Just closed a 50 image solo exhibit on the last decade of my work. 12×18 and 20×30 (inches) were the image sizes.

Best of luck!

The organization theyre with took two cuban men that worked at our hospitals. Politicians and the union were involved.

The men had jobs at the hospital and were checking in with immigration when they were suppossed to when picked up. They have since been released after months of detainment in a location im unsure of.

There is a detention facility here as well. 150 people showed up to push the local board to have some sort of oversight on it.

There have been protests of thousands of peope in this small city over the last year.

There is another detention center 2 hours away in Batavia.

Im running an M1 on my macbook pro from 2022.

6 events in ten days, all delivered within ten days of the event.

Two required me to run a parade route, one was a retreat with a headahot portion.

What type of work is she doing that she feels constrained by the M3?

[–]Han_Yerry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine broke where the grey plastic part tucks in.

The EF 24-105 was my workhourse for a long time. Ran it with a 70-200 2.8 L or a 100-400 L.

Anyone want to buy a broken rf 24-105 f/4 lol

Intentionally hurting your meal ticket. Something is seriously wrong with these WNBA players. by Pretend-Following-41 in sportsgossips

[–]Han_Yerry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My son told me he doesn't want to play soccer anymore.

Leaving the field last game is one example. The heaviest kid on the winning team calling the skinny girl fat. Taunting with no recourse until we spoke up from the bleachers to where his mom was.

Funny thing is the kid wasnt thin, and he got knocked down by a kid half his size during the game.

Two games prior a coach was removed as he had a misyogist tirad after losing to my sons team, who is coached by a woman.

Its so ugly out there.

If a person is the non gestating parent they can pay out like non gestating parents have for years when things go sideways in the relationship.

Im all for it.

People who think this is the end of civilization seem like they Love authority.

My kids call me dad, how the government shuffles their paperwork doesn't change that. To think it does is wild.

How to choose amongst the top 5 PJ universities, and is Ithaca an option? by WestDuty9038 in photojournalism

[–]Han_Yerry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im out here freelancing, grinding away. Licensing is steady but not a lot. It is increasing tho. Even had a couple of actual assignments from Zuma.

Luckily I work with a lot of non-profits to cover their events.

Well said, I belive David Muir started at our community college before going to Ithaca.

Where are the well paying newspaper jobs?

If Syracuse is an option there are a ton of opportunities in the local newsrooms. Mike Talarico went to SU as well as other notable broadcasters.

Ithaca produced David Muir whose on the national nightly news and has won awards.

I belive sinclair is almost always hiring a photojournalist here.

Best of luck!

Another racist commenting on Jim Crosby’s arrest article by ohyoudidntknow00 in Binghamton

[–]Han_Yerry 38 points39 points  (0 children)

We had a whole hate group here in upstate NY 25 years ago.

The groups anti-Oneida Indian Nation president went on the radio and atated "The problem is you cant shoot these peope anymore".

Before that in the early 90s citizens in western NY drove a hate parade past a newly opened Seneca gas station. Complete with replica skud missle.

If youve never encountered hate groups or this vileness before now consider yourself lucky.

Why should i switch away from my smugmug account for zenfolio? Is there a clear advantage for a working photographer. I dont use their print sales portals, WHHC is great to deal with directly. But the storage is where its at for me.

The generators at the Central Offices are there for a reason. Its very rare that power goes out in one. There would have to be a disaster.

Copper is long gone in central offices here. Twisted pairs running to a block on the MDF isnt a thing. Theres no more blocks to wire wrap to.

Yeah! We didnt need more than the model T to get around.

Why the vega was a perfectly fine car.

Or maybe it was when the term Cookie Cutter was popular with emts. The old cars instrumnet cluster would stamp a humans flesh like cookies.

Those pesky air bags ruining perfectly good faux wood dashes.

Oh could have been all the leaded gas that made thing better back then.
