Take a photography course and build a portfolio.

“The review itself was fairly easy going and I was able to chat to both Thomas and Roz about my work in a friendly yet proffessional manner. [...] Despite the praise though, there was a fair amount of critique towards my images too. This was where I got the most out of the session and began to learn alot in a short amount of time. The two proffessionals gave me poninters on where to improve my practice in all areas.”

“In preparation for the portfolio review, I had to print out the best images I had from my final year project. I had them printed on high quality paper and bought myself a portfolio box to store and present them in. Furthermore, I did research into the photographers I was going to speak to by looking at their work and understanding their practice.”

“We gave ourselves a full year to learn, plan, build a website, and formally form a company as Away Lands. [...] We moved out of our New York City apartment in September 2016 and took off for two and a half months across Southeast Asia. I emailed thousands of hotels and asked if we could make videos for them for free, as a way to sustain our travel and build a portfolio, and enough of them agreed.”
