Be Focused as a Photographer


We all have goals that we want to achieve in our lives, like building a successful business, raising a wonderful family, winning a championship, and so on... "You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus". Many often we are out focused rather being focused to reach our goals.

I went for a trip a month ago with my friends and gained a lesson for life. We had gathered for the opening of my friend Charles photo studio. Charles had invited me for the ribbon cutting ceremony to inaugurate his chroma key studio. A pizza and beer beach party followed on the eve of the function. The night party was great and had a fun time with long lost friends; it was a great get together after a break of 10 years from college.

The red carpet was rolled out where the refreshments were served to the friends, neighbours, suppliers and media, who has arrived for the grand opening party of chroma key studio. The party hall was filled with number of lively and attractive posters, which was made up of vinyl and Canvas.

Charles started demonstrating his service and products like Photography Backdrops, Photo Backgrounds, Studio lights, Studio umbrellas and Chroma software which is used to create a lively image. “A goal without a focus or plan is just a wish”. As a quote says Charles was focused on his dreams and that is the main reason for his dream has come true. He was inspired by the nature and he has a deep desire to learn everything about the photographic art. Processing and creating an image brings a sense of peace and joy in his life.

People started shooting the photographs in front of the creamy chocolate brown backdrops which is printed as "Happy Easter" with the Blood Red Cross on it. Photos are the best memories of our life to remember the important moments. As a token of celebrating his success, we also took a photograph in front of the backdrops. In the other end of the studio the adoring newlywed couples were rushing to take a photograph in front of other backdrop. That backdrop was made up of muslin, which has the Marble white Tajmahal with a sky blue back ground and floating clouds.

Charles was not aware of what’s happening around him, surprised to see how focused he is when he deals with the camera and the studio accessories. His goal is to take a perfect camera shot, and he is really doing a good job of it. The picture was very clear and lively as though they really took in front of the Tajmahal.


"Life is like a camera. Just focus on what’s important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives, and if things don’t turn out – take another shot".
Like the quote says, it is very important to not give up if the things do not turn out the way we thought. Focus on output rather than the input. I think it is really important to not give up on things, because we might miss out on some great experiences in the long run which will also teach us some lesson to overcome in our life.
