Getting a Photography Degree online?
I would like to become a professional photographer and am looking into photography schools in north Texas, and the only one I can find is a 4 year university. I am a 35 year old stay at home mom so going with a 4 year degree would be exhausting. I've looked into the Academy of Art online photography programs and noticed they are different than their classroom programs. Can I learn what I need to online? What are your opinions on online and classroom programs?
I am a professional photographer and have been for 9 years. You do not need a degree. You can take a photography class at any local university and get a certification. Your work is what clients will look at and you will have to have a basic knowledge of technical skills such as: aperature, shutter, lenses, lighting, and all the other how to's. Your composition is something you can practice. You can also buy some books and save yourself a lot of money by learning these things on your own.
I have done over 250+ weddings and hundreds of commercial photography assignments. All of which I have done without a degree. Save yourself the money and just take some basic classes, and then just get out there and sell yourself.
Good luck. As Nike says, "Just Do It!"
