I am doing a project and need some market research. 

Summer time

Summer is definitely here. Time to take photos of flowers and spend time with family.

Blog I Admire

Lately I have been looking at other blogs to get ideas of what to blog about. I ran across a blog called depositphotos. The blog is more than just a photography blog. They have other topics such as: News and Events, Interviews, Design, Business and Marketing and Photo Collections. The website has all of it's posts relating to some kind of art. So if you love art or just reading about interesting things, you should definitely check it out.

Put your photos out there

For the past few days, I have been testing out two apps/websites to see if I like them. These two apps/websites are great for photographers that want to put their photos online or to sell them to people all around the world.

The first app is GuruShots, it is also a website. On GuruShots you click on a challenge you want to put a photo in and you insert a photo. Most challenges allows you to insert up to four photos. After you insert your photo(s), you click on vote to up your exposure, so you can get more votes. You are trying to be one of the best photographers. You are also allowed to swap photos if you would like.

The second app is EyeEm, it is a website too. On EyeEm you upload photos that you want to sell. When you upload your photos, they review it to see if it's okay to go on the market. When they review it they either put it on the market, select for partner or they don't select it for market. If it's not selected for market, the photo is still posted publicly, people aren't allowed to buy it though. 

Sunset

I have never been the type to take pictures. One day I was at the Overlook at Raystown Lake in Huntington  and the sunset looked so pretty. So I took my phone out and just snapped this beautiful picture. I think for my first time it came out pretty decent. 

4 Reasons I Love Lightroom

In my one of my previous posts, Favorite Apps for Photographers, I talked about the app, Lightroom. Lightroom is the only app I use currently to edit my photos. The first thing I love about Lightroom is it allows you to see all the photos you are editing instead of all your photos you are editing mixed in with what is in your camera roll. Another thing I love about Lightroom is that if you forget to save what you are working on it's ok because Lightroom automatically saves any edits you made. Photoshop makes you save manually and if you forget then you lost all of your work. The third thing I like about Lightroom is when you click on a photo to edit the editing bar is already opened compared to Photoshop where the filter bar is opened. I care more about actually editing the photos and I don't really care about putting filters on. The last reason I love Lightroom is because they have an auto edit button. So, if I am really short on time I hit the auto button and it pretty much puts it where I want it. If it doesn't, it doesn't take that long to fix it to how I want it.

2019 Photography Trend

Everyone likes knowing what trends are going on and they like to follow them. I looked up photography trends and I found this blog. The blog has 10 photography trends for 2019, and I am only going to be talking about one. The trend that interests me, and I noticed I do it too, is pet photography. Everyone loves pets, so why not take photos of your pets and share them with the world.
