I am 19 and have been practicing photography for several years. After doing some freelance and experiencing other fields in the photo world, I have decided that fashion photography is the only industry that truly interests me. I have studied fashion to the best of my ability; top designers, models, magazines, photographers etc. I have been persistent and thought about this for about 2 years now if this is something I really want to do. After much consideration, it was clear that I really do what to work as a photographer in the industry BUT I am not sure how to go about doing this. I understand the basic mechanics of the camera, lighting, posing, etc. but I am not sure how to get myself out there. What should I do? Should I go out and call photo agencies and see if I can go on a "go see?" Or maybe, I should go out and get some of my work published but how? I am really stuck on this!! Any suggestions would be helpful! Thank you! : )
