Photography Carrer Project
Part one research Report
For your career find out:
-Duties: Not only are food photographers skilled, they often have culinary backgrounds as well. The two talents marry to create a photograph that captures the essence of food appreciation. Food photographers work directly with corporations or food organizations.
-Salary range: $42,000. The average hourly rate for new food photographers may range from $120 to $250, depending on the location and type of assignment.
Prerequisites. Integration education. Experience. Skills: Having a “good eye” for creative shots is more important than formal education. Having examples of your photography can be better that have lots of photography degrees. Even that is not required, a bachelor’s degree in photography or a related field may improve the skills and employment prospects of food photographers. Good skills that will be appreciated are, creativity and attention to detail; technical photography skills and experience with digital cameras, computer editing software, and digital printing; interpersonal, business, and marketing skills.
Employment prospects: The field of photography is projected to grow by 13 percent between 2010 and 2020. Although this is faster than the average of all occupations, overall growth will be stunted due to the accessibility of digital cameras and the concurrent rising number of aspiring photographers. Self-employed photographers are projected to experience a 15 percent growth during the same time period.
Advancement prospects: First you need to earn a degree, then take a workshop, build a portfolio (Food photographers should always have both a print and digital copy of their portfolios, or a collection of their best work, to show potential clients or employers)and at the end join an organization.
Ideas and tips for entry into the profession: It would be good if you create a website, showing your work to future clients.
