How to Improve as a Photographer

Everyone wants to be a better photographer, but with as complex as the craft is, it can be difficult to know how to create a focused plan to really bring you to the next level. If you would like to improve your work, check out this fantastic video tutorial that features an experienced photographer sharing a wealth of valuable advice. 

Coming to you from Scott Choucino of Tin House Studio, this excellent video tutorial discusses some of the best ways to become a better photographer. One that I think is particularly important is shooting series of images or projects, not just single photos. One of the hallmarks of a professional photographer is not just the ability to create a good image, but to consistently make compelling photos. On top of that, working on a unified set of shots will help you to establish a creative identity, which will, in turn, help you to land clients, as they will be able to better anticipate what sort of photos they will receive and thus, can make more informed decisions. Check out the video above for the full rundown from Choucino.
