I started reading for about 5 seconds and was instantly
enraged that someone made a claim that “treating other people with respect and
compassion is not something any photo school can really teach”. I find the exact opposite to be true especially
in our close-knit senior seminar class.
We all genuinely care about each other and I feel privileged to be a
part of such a generous, and caring community of artists. I do however agree with the points about
learning how to market your self as a photographer and learning the realities
of photography as a business. I would
have absolutely no clue where to start, or even if I would ever want to start a
business because I have close to no information about the business side of this
field.
I feel as prepared
as I’m going to about leaving Tyler in May, but feel that after senior seminar
with Rebecca Michaels I’ve learned the importance of maintaining a studio
practice, keeping yourself informed about new advancements in the field as well
as the importance of reading about what new photographers are doing, and the
importance of getting your name out there.
