The Life Of A Photographer

While the primary responsibility of a professional photographer is to capture breathtaking images of the subject matter in the brief, daily tasks involve much more than just taking pictures. Let's look at some of the primary responsibilities of a photographer.

Obtain quotes. Customers get in touch with you to request a price for a photographic session. This might be for a bridal party shot, business picture shoot, wedding photo shoot, or family photo session. 
Prepare for upcoming shoots. To fully meet the objectives of the client, you might need to arrange some elements for upcoming shoots depending on the brief. Plan beforehand because a typical shoot day could require a lot of equipment.
Market and find customers. 
If you're a freelance photographer, you'll need to invest time in marketing and promotion to attract customers. 
shooting on location. You'll need to block some time in your schedule for the actual shoot. You will need to set up your gear, including staging components, flashes, tripods, a variety of lenses and filters, and lighting, once you get at the shooting area. The secret is to plan.
Edit the work, then finish it. A sizable portion of the job involves post-production editing. Customers may have very specific requests, such as having stray nose hairs removed from a photograph. As you might have 600–700 images for a shoot, you will also need to edit the photos. For your client to choose from, make sure to pick and update the best ones.
Those who have no experience of photography at all always comment on what a fun life I must lead when I tell them what I do for a job.

The life of a photographer is typically perceived by individuals without any experience in the field as being similar to how the profession is frequently represented in movies: the photographer shows up to a shoot, punches a few buttons on a set that is ready and waiting for them, and then goes out drinking with the models.

Of course, reality is much more intriguing and less glamorous than that! Let's look at an example of a typical shoot day in my career as a corporate and portrait photographer. I might have carried a tiny comic with me.
Day following the shooting
Go through all the pictures in order. I try to provide customers with at least 10 headshots per subject to chose from, which is typically way too many. It's typically only a matter of resizing images and cropping them to fit because the shots have already been converted from RAW files and the lighting was set up properly. Unfortunately, corporate clients consistently seem to include an alarmingly high percentage of individuals with untrimmed nasal hair. Most people probably don't picture shaving their noses when they think of photography. Sadly, it is frequently necessary.

After multiple emails and phone conversations in which the department and a fictitious account were blamed, over a period of several months, payment for the shot was finally received.
We observe it daily. When someone decides to become a photographer, they may believe, "Now I get to make photographs for the rest of my life."

You certainly can and will. not as much as you might believe. In actuality, you will only be taking pictures around 20% of the time and working on the business end of things the remaining 80%.

tasks such as:

Content promotion
video advertising
Social networking
email advertising
Billing Booking Editing Repairing
Culling
consuming an excessive amount of tea or coffee
chatting with leads
addressing the clients
location scouting
again speaking with clients
consuming more coffee or tea
Editing more and delivering the goods
This list is quite lengthy and might go on forever.

I made the decision to construct a funny work
