Hi there,
I hope this is the right place to post this, i really wasnt all that sure.
My dream job is newborn/child photography and i am in no way professional at all. I have the canon 600d with an 18-55mm lens and a 50 1.8 lens.
I know that safety is really important but i cannot find a course near to me at all that offers a workshop or a qualification like so. I live in rochdale, about an hour from Manchester and it's so frustrating as i don't want to take any steps until i know that i have the correct safety training.
At the moment i practise on my neice who is now 18 months but i've been photographing her since birth. I'm not a professional and i know i need to learn all of the steps it takes so please don't think im posting this in the hopes of becoming a photographer tomorrow - i dont. There is no better place to ask than here which is filled full of different experiances of photographer.
I wondered if any of you know of any courses (if you live near me) or anything i can do to get more experiance.
My plan would be to work a full time job aswel as being a photographer freelancing and mobile on the side. I would go to their houses to take the photos.
I would eventually love to have my own little workspace once i have moved house and i know for certain this is what i would like to do.
I would also love to ask if any of you could suggest any other lenses i may need for this style of photography so i can note them down and begin looking into them.
Also any other equipment i might need (softboxes) (flashes) and that kind of thing just so i can make myself a list to begin reasearching. I know i need props and a beanbags etc and things like that it's the technical side of things i'd love the help with.
I hope someone out there can help me as this is what i want to do and it's time i start taking steps in the right direction!!
