I love these types of videos. However, I'd love to see more examples of each trait. Most of the time I'm not sure if I'm actually picturing what I should or have a hard time visualizing something at all. Photography is a visual medium, please include more visual examples!

Though you're not wrong, asking for "more free stuff" is not the way to go about this. Buy or borrow some photography books and see what these artists are about, applying the concepts you've seen in this video and others. It's out there. Go find it yourself. In other words, if other photographers already understand this and apply it without asking for anything else, then neither Pat nor the rest of us would take time to give you the visual examples that you need, simply because we went out to find what we were looking for... we still are by the way. Cheers.

great video and great advice! i'd like to add that I think a lot of beginner photographers do have a clear subject, but lack interesting non-subject elements to balance out the photograph or add to the story. Personally, especially when I first started out, but still now, I took a lot of photos of just a subject and nothing else. Very little story to tell. A good photo needs more, such as location/context, framing, thoughtful background, foreground elements, thoughtful use of color, shapes, symmetry, complimentary secondary subjects, etc.

Great video as always Pat! Your content is always such high quality and I think you have a real strength in your communication style; it's always structured, clear to the point, yet doesn't lose out on bringing out your soul and passion for the topic. We're very lucky to have you! On another note, I bought your LR editing masterclass and it's been phenomenal. Just a thought, maybe offer a discount code to your presets or a preset 'trial package' for those who bought the masterclass? I can imagine heaps of people who have gone through your LR masterclass would also be interested in your presets! But regardless, the message remains, I'm very grateful for all the work you've done for us. Thank you :)

Finding my visual language is what I'm struggling with most right now. Half of me is drawn to minimalism; clean lines, symmetry, almost pastel like colors. The other half is drawn to a warmer, vintage aesthetic, abstract and artful (think Saul Leiter) When i try to find a common ground I feel like I'm aping Wes Anderson or something similar which is not my aim.

I don't if this is helpful but from personal experience, I've been taking photos for like a good two years now (don't know how long you've been doing it). But, during all this time of taking photos, and more photos, I look back at my previous work, and while I say many of them could have been much better, I can see some traits of those primitive photos that I kept on doing again and again to this date. Then that's when I realize, what type of styles I'm drawn into. Because during those moments, I'm exploring other themes but at the end of the day, when I look back, I am able to see what I like doing. Yeah some styles change, but there is this innate liking that we are drawn to and that took time for me to realize. Hope this helps. If not, I tried lol. Cheers!

Nice video. Regarding your comments about business. One thing I found owning a studio and being a full time portrait photographer is that I actually have less time for actual photography than when I was an enthusiast. I would estimate that I spend maybe 20% of my time actually shooting and the rest of the time marketing, selling , networking , communication with clients and the 8 million things any business needs to do to prosper. Also I have found that while you do get better at your genre the more you do it it does not necessarily mean you are becoming a better photographer overall . I’m not being negative, I love having a professional studio ….. all I mean is , if you love photography purely for the craft , I honesty think you are better off being an amateur enthusiast. Some of the best photography I see is from photographers who do not get paid . 🙂

Hello Pat, Just found your videos for the first time today. On the subject of getting more time for photography. How does one get from after work and weekends, to getting photography to be your job? I like portrait photography, and I can see a path to making that a paying hobby by offering services to friends and acquaintances. Then developing a style, and getting referrals from there. However, my passion is Landscape photography and I can't think of how to start developing this into a paying job. How have the photographer's you know managed the transition? Keith

This is the 6th youtube channel that I've saw this week having titles such: " Dew dis to be ahead 99% or 95% of other people" 🤣(I guess the 'ahead 99%' it's smth that gain viewes and likes right now) I think I'm starting to see that youtubers will do anything for content. I mean, don't wanna be rude but..all youtubers are saying that they care about honesty and bla bla, but if a title such as: 'What color should you wear to attract inspiration', all (or most of them) street & art YT channels will follow the trend.

Last one ist most important. The best togs I know don't hang around on social media and also they don't make the most spectacular images. They have a tight business network and plenty of jobs to do. They are reliable and deliver solidly anytime anyplace. The market is highly saturated, true. But not with rocksolid photography businessmen. Many struggle on running a healthy brand.
