Some 'amateur' photographers dream of shooting big accounts, big fashion,big elebrities etc etc.
What do you need to do such things. Its a bit like big game hunting. First point where is the big game. What would you do????
Would you buy a rifle first or a flight ticket.
Yes where is the big big game. Where i live I could buy the rifle, the bullets, the tent the provisions, the 4x4 everything, but it would do no good, because there are no big game targets here. I would end up chasing little game with big game equipment. Sure it massages my ego to have all this stuff but I have no trophies well no big big trophies.
On the other hand I could get a ticket to where the game is. What about the stuff, well we'll hire or rent that for the moment, build up a trophy list and then maybe buy some of the stuff and really give it its intended use.
Would it be best to spend £$1000s on gear or spend the same amounts spending time in a big game location sayLONDON,PARIS, MILAN, NYC or LA
When the tickets not an option the camera makers rub their hands with glee. First get a 1Emark7 20mp and a full set of low dispersion x lenses and next, well who cares what comes next, they say thats your problem. Heck shoot the girls in the office and join an online forum.
Give us all your cash and thatll be your ticket
