Working on Spec – What is It?
The term “spec” in the photography world stands for “speculation”. Thus, the longer phrase “Working on Spec” is pretty self explanitory. You put your time and effort into a project and in the end hope someone wants to buy it from you.

It’s been a crazy couple of days…

I may be jumping ahead here…
Still here after reading the last post? Good. Hopefully you are a committed photographer who needs to know how to make a living doing what you love. Before I really get going with all of the handy-dandy little things that will help you on your journeys (hopefully), there are two things that [...]
