Photography is the process of making pictures by means of the action of light. It involves recording light patterns, as reflected from objects, onto a sensitive medium through a timed exposure. The process is done through mechanical, chemical or digital devices commonly known as cameras. A career in photography can lead to a very exotic lifestyle as a fashion photographer or as a serious and committed artist for a newspaper or magazine.
Occupations in the photographical industry can be as varied as a career in print or the communications industry. If you choose to pursue a career in photography you will have many options to choose from. The path you take will depend primarily on your personality. In photography, there are options for those who are more artistically oriented such as portraiture and some more commercial options like advertising or photo journalism. To find and capture memorable images requires cultivating many attributes.
As a photography student, you will have to open your mind to different areas such as problem solving, quick thinking, sensitivity and patience. It is very important to learn photography techniques as well as to develop artistic abilities. The best commercial photographers are both skilled technicians and good artists. Pursuing a degree in photography will take you through a diverse range of disciplines including visual communications and theory, history, fine art, business, science, mass media, psychology, etc. Your professional photographic skills will be enhanced as you increase your knowledge in more than one area of study such as historical, psychological and scientific significance. This will open many doors in your future allowing you to choose from many other options that a career in photography offers.
