All I know is... I love to take pictures and I think I am pretty good at it. I need to learn the functions and abilities of my camera and use them to my advantage. I need to practice, practice, and then practice some more. I need to study the software and learn the tricks to editing effectively. I need to learn how to do some graphics so I can be more creative. I need to learn about business and how to run one properly. I know there are many things I need to learn or get better at... but I do consider myself a photographer. Amateur? Yes... but a photographer nonetheless! https://www.facebook.com/BrenKenPhoto
When you look at my photos or talk to me about taking pictures, please don't start telling me about "so & so" who is a "real" photographer, just to knock me down. I don't need that. I know very well, that I am not a professional and never claimed to be. I know very well that I do not make money off my work. I know very well that there are a lot of photographers out there that are more skilled and are better than me. I don't need to be reminded. When you do that to me... it makes me feel like dirt, like my work is meaningless because I am not a "professional". If you don't like my work... Tell me why you don't like my pictures, be constructive... but don't just knock me down. Mean people suck.
