❤️ to ❤️ with Sara // 001: biggest misconception about being a better photographer 

So many people think you have to have the latest and most expensive gear to be a better photographer/cinematographer, but…

Your camera is simply the tool!📷

You are the artist, creative director, visionary❤️ 

And it’s up to you to learn how to make your gear work in the best way you know how by:

-learning composition
-understanding lighting (natural + artificial)
-using your communication skills to direct effectively 
-practicing new techniques to elevate your work
-how to pose your clients in ways that feel natural + flattering
-create a comfortable experience for your subject
❤️ 

And that’s just the beginning! You do not need to go out and invest in thousands of dollars in equipment until you simply get back to the basics and learn with what gear you do have✨

The goal is to get clear on your vision and work with what you have so you don’t get overwhelmed, put yourself in debt and feel frustrated that you are not getting the types of shots you want! 

Start with the basics and GROW🥰

So excited to share more tips and tricks with you guys in this new ❤️ to ❤️ series with Sara!✨
