A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I want to understand the fascination some people have with this theme. How did you started with it? Is it a Hobby or your Job? I am not a native speaker, still learning english, so sorry for mistakes.

I was working in a very tough industry working with some pretty traumatizing stuff. I use photography to inject joy and color directly into my brain to give me dopamine and chase away the demons lol

I stick with it because it genuinely gives me joy to show people how gorgeous they are and accentuate their natural features with just a little bit of lighting and knowledge on how to pose. People leave my sessions feeling good about themselves and keep getting compliments once they use my images.
