Alsooo sorry for being really inactive 😭😭😭 I have a ton of studies and I'm also training for a cycling compeition but I try to sneak in some photography. (come to think of it these would be nice spring competition entries...)

First off, welcome! I’m Jan Danielewicz, a creative entrepreneur, and photographer + video marketer. My passion lies in helping other creatives like YOU turn your passion for photography into a thriving business. With that being said this is YOUR space to grow, connect, and learn alongside other talented creatives. To get started on the right foot, I’ve put together this post to guide you. My tip: Take your time! We want to know who you are as a person. In your introduction, you can mention the following: - What is your name and how old are you? - Where are you from? - What kind of photo/video work do you do/want to do? These questions are just a few templates for you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go through the introductions every now and then and feel free to respond using the REPLY button (: PS: It's definitely worth activating the bell on this post so you know when someone new introduces themselves.

Hey everyone! So stoked to be here! I'm new here and I was hoping to get some tips on how to get more clients. I just decided to go all-out with my photography and actually transform it into a business, but I'm struggling with getting clients. I'm a photographer based in Barcelona and I wanted to target tourists or couples who visit this beautiful city. I was hoping to hear what you guys did to get clients! Or any tips would be much appreciated :) https://www.thebarcelonaphotographer.com

The gentleman was enjoying the tranquil view of the harbour, as was I. I noticed two ladies taking a selfie, so I quickly set my aperture to f/2.8 to blur the background. The result was a pleasing image with a sense of storytelling.

This week when I was looking for a topic for my theme park photography blog, I ended up going through one of my oldest Disneyland galleries and I found a terrible picture I just had to laugh at. It was not an image I deleted, and it's not one I share often because I clearly missed on what I was intending to capture. But it was an early attempt at photographing something from a moving ride vehicle. While the photo may "suck" since it didn't achieve what I was looking to capture, but it still serves as a reminder of my starting point. I may have missed the shot, but it forced me to make changes on subsequent attempts. If I can't take a moment to laugh at my early start then how can I fully appreciate my skills as they are now. In any case, I've attached my photo that I failed at and found myself chuckling at when I looked in the long forgotten folder a few days ago. Perhaps you'd like to share one of your own "bad" photos and tell us a little bit about the photo.
