In the age when everyone is taking photos, what makes a photographer?

July 6, 2017 By Autumn

Digital photography, phone cameras, and social media have created a world full of picture-takers. But are they all photographers? What roles do technical knowledge, high-tech gear, and willingness to stay abreast of current trends play? Is it artistic ability that makes a photographer? Consider the differences between a person holding a camera and a photographer.

Key Takeaways:

  • In this era when photography’s so available, what makes a photographer? If “everyone is a photographer,” is anyone?
  • If you think of yourself as a photographer, it probably means you are one. Maybe it sounds simplified, but really, it all comes down to this.
  • I believe it’s the love for photography, constant learning and the artistic vision that make me a photographer.

“If you think of yourself as a photographer, it probably means you are one.”
