Future Success
[by Rosh Sillars]
The last decade brought the standardization of digital photography, an increased interest in the craft and the commoditization of photographic images.
Many of the bread-and-butter jobs that once fed our families are now gone. Let it go and don’t look back.
Change is constant. Turn around and face the future. Technology, which has taken our opportunities, now offers new possibilities.
Photographers can be more creative than ever with higher quality image capture, unbelievable post processing and multimedia opportunities.
The Internet and social media have eliminated the barriers to sharing your vision with an international audience. Photographers are connecting with people in cities, states and countries not even on the radar just a few years ago.
Over the next year we will hear more about real-time applications and augmented reality. People will become more connected, social and mobile.
In the future, photographers will need more creativity, communication and marketing skills to succeed. One thing that will not change: people and relationships. They are and will continue to be the foundation of a photographer’s success.
