'Experience is the best teacher' - I certainly believe that. I have taken some basic photography courses and have been interested in photography all of my life. I believe I'm actually pretty good! I really would like to have the chance to work with a professional portrait photographer though - even just for a couple of weeks or so - to see if I have what it takes. Is there anyone out there willing to take on an apprentice for awhile? In the Wisconsin or Northern Illinois area. I have actually e-mailed a few photographers but didn't even get replies.

First off well success! You don't have any Idea what number of individuals like yorself are seeking to holiday into fitting a self supported photographer.The ONLY method to realy get into studying pictures is through studying from a Pro. What's the populace in Issaquah? Is it a gigantic gigantic town like Dallas, L.A. New York. Chicago? there's a purpose why I 'am asking. In the higher towns there are greater than 50 to one hundred distinct Photographers. photographing one hundred distinct matters .In one hundred distinct studios. Here is the way you holiday into running with a Pro. order this booklet from Amazon -----> The Photographer's Assistant through John Kieffer. Its most important to learn the entire booklet. earlier than you cross speaking to Pro 's It will let you know the whole lot you must recognize approximately running within the legitimate pictures global

for portrait photog. the best experience is to get into the lions den, as they say. I suggest applying at a place called "the picture people" they specialize in family photog with an emphasis on childrens photog.
They train and you get good experience in customer service, random crazy kids, and you learn all sorts of tricks of the trade.
The pay is decent and you get commission on your photos that sell...
