Most creative people keep trying to increase what they are working, including a photographer. To be an expert in photography, of course, can be reached by improving themselves to be skillful. The best way is mastering photography skills. Those are including the structured targets helping you to develop more.
Learning and Doing Photography
One way to be a professional photographer is by going outside and capturing photos. During capturing photos, you should consider what you did. Of course, by seeing the professional photographer’s masterpiece, it can help you a lot in improving yourself. You also should learn more about the photography theory and practice in which it is influencing the ways of your thinking when you take photos. However, it is useless reading many theories but you don’t practice taking photos and try different things. It is wasting your time.
The target to increase your photography skills is running to the plan for capturing photos. If you try something new, you need to spend your time learning basic techniques. But, if you have conducted it, it is the best time to train yourself. After spending time to learn basic skills, you will seed in the right position where you are more understanding when you learn further techniques. You will regard the problems that you can finish with that technique. Don’t directly make a lapse time with a cramping technique if you have not captured it with lapse time or long exposure.
Determining the Last Target and Process Target
Generally, it has two targets. Those are the final target and process targets. The last target is usually determined by a spot on the temporary end. Meanwhile, a process target is determined by some steps that you do to reach the last spot. To learn this new skill, the process target tends to be better. For example, the last target is taking ten great photos and the process target is spending one hour taking photos carefully. With those things, you are getting ten great photos. If your target is getting ten photos, you will not reach it though you have spent time with your camera. However, if your target is spending one hour taking photos, you are reaching it and getting some marvelous photos.
Mastering Smart Target
One of the main approaches to manage the target is the SMART approach. It stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time- Constrained. To be good photography, you must master those criteria. Specific means that your target must be specific with natural lighting. Measurable is helping you to be an expert in photography for hours to take many great photos. Then, achievable is that your target must be achieved. Relevant is that your target must be appropriate for the other targets in which it is improving your photography’ skills. Time-constrained is a kind of target having a timeline. You need to spend hours per week with a limited target.
