Any Recommendations for a culling service? (not AI based) Hi friends! I’m looking for a culling service to help narrow down my galleries – I use Aftershoot for the first wave before sending them off for a final cull.

How do you handle people that keep asking for their photo to be taken at events you’re photographing at? Whenever I’m out with friends / family, I like taking my camera to take photos of my friends. I usually go for photos where the subject doesn’t know I am taking the photo. A style similar to street photography. And every time I try and take these photos, someone starts waving their arms trying to get my attention, wanting me to take a photo of …

Feeling not good enough. Am I wrong to want to change niches? I’ve been a commercial photographer for about 5 years, focusing mainly on the finer dining industry for the past 4 years. I’ve shot many new menus and fancy dishes alike, but every time I shoot, I hate my work and feel this isn’t the niche for me. It’s a tough internal struggle because I really enjoy the world of professional chefs and the atten…

Images are only focused on the centre when using a new lens, how can I fix this? I bought a second hand Sigma 18-200mm 3.5-6.5 lens. All of the images I’ve taken with it so far are really blurry in a circle around the middle, above are some examples from a recent shoot. The centre of the images are in focus but the edge just blurs and I think there’s some chromatic aberration happening on some of them. I looked at reviews be…

Would you use a flash gun or a studio head? I’ve just been briefed for a job. I’m to photograph an ambassador for a charity in their offices. They’d like candid shots of them chatting with staff members around the office, plus also a group shot on the stairs of them all together. The office has pretty good natural light, but has much darker areas too. I’m wondering if it’d be best to use…

In my message, I explained that my plan is to create and sell the origin…

Next lens suggestions? I recently got a Fujifilm X-S10. My current lenses are a TTartisan 35mm f1.4 and a XC 50-230mm f/4.5-6.7 OIS II. I think the next best choice for me would be a wide lens like a 16 or 23mm. I don’t really have a big budget but would still prefer an autofocus one. Open to any suggestions, even if it’s not a 16 or 23mm. Thanks in advance! submi…

Decent camera with telephoto lens? I would like to buy a camera that is at least 12 megapixels (preferably 16) with an optical zoom that can do at least 10x zoom. I currently use my phone for photos (S23 Ultra, 12 megapixel setting, almost always using the 3x or 10x telephoto lenses), but I would like a seperate camera due to battery/overheating issues. I mostly take photos of st…
