In the gym that saying still holds true, and with a few tips and tricks you can still get great photos with that camera that's almost always in your pocket anyway. You're getting practice, they are getting some portfolio images. Further, there may be a particular athlete you want to work with, they might need some portfolio images, and you might want to practice with a more high profile athlete.

Plenty of working photographers have started out by getting their gym memberships in exchange for a monthly photoshoot. Telling someone you're worth money - and I don't mean charging $50 for a 4 hour shoot - but real money - hundreds if not thousands of dollars is scary. You're also walking into the shoot with a few hundred to a few thousand dollars of camera gear, as well as the computer at home, and the software you're going to use to edit.

Let's say you're not a very speedy editor so every hour of photography you do, takes two hours of editing to process and edit your images. A client or editor isn't shirt printing dubai going to scroll through 30 images, they are going to skim a few and make a judgement. A portfolio should be 8-12 photos specifically of the type of work you're looking to do. Don't send a portfolio to a gym client that includes wedding photos, or food photos.

With a setup like that you can shoot RAW, have plenty of low light range, and can nail tact sharp photos. Even entry level DSLRs have incredible low light capabilities and can create fantastic images in the right hands, better you can get them very cheap used. The number one thing I thought I fell into the trap of was including images that I held an emotional attachment to, that should have otherwise been rejected.

I'm not really going to spell this out more, perfect is perfect and if there is anything in your image that you think may not be, it shouldn't be included. That's the end of that conversation for me, I'm not going to follow-up and ask why shot number 3 was out of focus and what shot number 5 was overexposed. That means the exposure is perfect, the focus is tact sharp on the subject's eye, the composition is spot on, the processing is perfect without being overdone.

Images with one athlete, as well as multiple athletes in frame. Some things to think about are making sure there is a variety in your set of images. You need to make your impression in 8-15 images.

They aren't going to drill 100 images deep. They don't want a mediocre wedding photographer that sometimes shoots CrossFit in his free time. Including these images in your portfolio makes you seem like an amateur.

If you want to be the best photographer in CrossFit, the only things in your portfolio should include CrossFit-style images.
