The world is full of wonders to photograph, and photographers can be pulled in many directions, excitedly chasing the light and the moment. This approach can certainly yield wonderful photographs, but over time the photographer’s progress often begins to slow, and eventually, it can stop altogether.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe reason for this is simple: creativity begins with image-making, but true progress comes with learning to edit and organize your work in ways that reflect your unique style and perspective, ways that offer you insight into how you can improve your work moving forward. In short, the key to becoming the best photographer you can be is to create an ongoing portfolio (or multiple portfolios) of your work.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBased on an eight-week course taught by renowned photographer and author William Neill, \u003cstrong\u003eThe Photographer’s Portfolio Development Workshop\u003c\/strong\u003e provides the tools and skills you need in order to create a methodology that allows you to create a tightly edited portfolio of work, no matter your end goal: a box of prints, a book, an online presentation or website, or even a gallery exhibit.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA portfolio is simply a collection of photographs with a consistent theme and consistent quality. In developing such a body of work, you will learn what your specific passions are, find focus for your work, and begin the iterative process of creating better and better photographs over time. By constantly working within a “feedback loop”—where you carefully assess and edit your images, note and learn from mistakes, then go out and create more photographs—you’ll develop a portfolio that is constantly gaining in strength, quality, and impact. It’s no surprise that you’ll also become a much better photographer.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNo matter the photographic genre you work in, this book will teach you to objectively assess your work on both technical and aesthetic levels, establish a personal standard of quality, focus your efforts on new work, and become a better photographer. The book features eight lessons, along with assignments at the end of each lesson to propel you and your work forward. Throughout, Neill uses his own photographs to illustrate the process he has used for years to create multiple portfolios and books.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTable of Contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLesson 1: Find Your Focus\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLesson 2: Thinking in Themes\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLesson 3: Editing on a Technical and Aesthetic Level\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLesson 4: Grouping by Quality\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLesson 5: Adding New Work\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLesson 6: Improving Your Portfolio\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLesson 7: Where You Can Go From Here\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLesson 8: Putting It All Together\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e William Neill \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublish Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 30, 2022\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft Cover - With Flaps\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rocky Nook\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 x 0.5 x 10 inches\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 112\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9781681988238\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn The Box:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1 x The Photographer's Portfolio Development Workshop: Learn to Think in Themes, Find Your Passion, Develop Depth, and Edit Tightly\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e","brand":"Rocky Nook","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41129640099885,"sku":"85537","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0397\/6167\/4285\/products\/85537_01_Hero.png?v=1668739819","url":"https:\/\/glozerscamera.shop\/products\/the-photog-pf-dev-workshop","provider":"Glazer's Camera","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
