A New Look

In Photography, shooting more pictures is not the only way to improve your skills and methods of shooting.

you must assist other photographers. Assisting is great, assisting is kinda of shadowing the photography, help out with the lights give him ideas, you can shoot some too, but i think its better just to watch and obverse.

While Assisting you should think of theses things

How is he shooting?
What angels does he shoot at?
How does he like to set up his lights?
How is that different from my set up?
What does he do differences than me?
How does he Interact to his model?
Does he interact with his Model?
What can i do to interact like that?
What could you change if i was your shoot?

Make sure you ask questions why he does this rather than that options.

theses are some basic questions that you should just think of while going in the process of assisting some one. i think it would be great if you jot all the notes on a pieces of paper. so you can later recall what he did and how he did and why he did what.

Assisting an another photographer is not copying an Photographer
Assisting is to help you build your sources for the future.
you would use the knowledge from that day and interpret for the future.

Even if you were going to copy all the steps that the photographer had use.
i grantee that the pictures will come different. why is that? because every photography as an different "eye".

Assisting a Photographer helps you take a peak of there :eye" and what they see in there view finder. !

today was a great day assisting a good friend of mine Binh Nguyen.
i gain tons of knowledge just from taking a peak in his view.

Thanks binh!!!
