Giving away the pro photographer secret recipe. 3 tips from FIND 2.0 Workshop to help you better your craft and grow your business. Jonathan Canlas

Stop looking at your competitor’s work.
You won’t stand out if you only take inspiration from your peers. Look at the masters like Richard Avedon, Chuck Close, or Vivian Maier to inform how you approach your photography.

It doesn’t matter if you do weddings, sports, families, engagments, or commercial. You’ll find inspiration outside of your niche.

You’re only as good as your worst photo.
You never want your client to have to cull down images you send them. You want a “perfect, no notes” review. That means when you hit delete on an image, its gone. There is no maybe folder. Only show the best.

The less you show, the stronger your body of work.

Everyone should be working on three personal projects at all times.
Start new project, work on 6-month old project, and add to a persistent project. Personal work is all about finding your artistic voice. The best part? No one can tell you what to shoot.

This and more at FIND 2.0, but don’t take it from us:
“FIND 2.0 is a great, holistic film experience. It demystified film photography and taught me consistent, repeatable techniques that have allowed me to get out of my own way and enjoy photography. From flash to development, seeing the whole process helped me understand what I was missing to create the looks that I have wanted to achieve.”

Frontier or Noritsu?
This is one of the questions we hear most Both machines will give you beautiful scans—but they don’t look the same.

Frontier: punchy contrast, golden skin, a rich black point, and the only way to get borders and sprockets.

Noritsu: flatter tones, warmer greens, more room for our techs to fine-tune, and better frame-to-frame consistency.

We asked the team and it went 11 to 7 in favor of the Frontier. Not exactly a landslide.
Swipe through the side-by-sides and vote in the poll below. And if you’re still on the fence, pick “Scan on Both” on your next order. Nothing beats seeing it on your own film.

Get Your Shutter Priorities Straight

The Pentax K1000 is so perfectly simple that it inspired one of these two new pieces of merch. “Even when it’s broken, it still works,” says developing manager Taylor about the camera. Rep a piece “the quintessential film camera” with the Dial Tee. Before you comment, yes the front says Tv, and no the K1000 doesn’t have a shutter priority mode. It’s a nod to the concept of shutter speed for ball knowers.

Have you ever metered a scene thats just a little too dark? You’re already at f/2.8 and shooting 800 ISO film—the only thing left to do is slow down your shutter speed. 1/125 isn’t enough. Neither is 1/30th. It’s risky, but 1/8 will get you there.
 
You might’ve been a little too cocky, though. The picture comes out kinda blurry. A good blurry. One that people will think was on purpose. Because it was. Right?
