> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> >> >> > For this project, I have decided to mimic the job of a Macro Photographer and take pictures like they do. I will use a combination of pictures taken on my phone with my olloclip, an attachment for my phone camera, and possibly with the school provided cameras if needed. I would like to portray beauty through the little things in this project because I truly believe that is what macro photographs are. Seeing the little things that so often we not only do not see but don't pay attention to because we are so caught up in the big things in life. I’m going to try and take pictures of the snow(if we have any) or I thought it would be fun to take apart a watch and capture the inside of it.
 * Include 3 photos you found that relate to the career you are interested in.
 * List the website sources you used to do your research. These should be in addition to the resource pages I've already given you.

 * Explain the types of photos photographers shoot (portrait, landscape, cityscape, still life, nature, rural, urban)
 * These photographers shoot macro photographs, which are close up pictures of usually things like nature.
 * Explain the style of work they must create in order to satisfy their client (realistic, abstract, glamour, journalistic, documentary, expressionistic, experimental)
 * The photographers must create works of reality, attraction, and with many a sense of vibrancy and abstractness. For example the first photo above has a vibrant, retro feel to it. You want the viewer to almost see the object as if they were that small too.
 * Explain the salaries they earn for their work (starting out, mid career, veteran)
 * Macro photographer salaries range anywhere from about 35k per year to 55k per year.
 * Explain the type or kind of schooling or other preparation they must go through
 * A typical macro photographer would go to a technical college and take a photographic arts class, and attend a university for a business degree.
 * Explain the type of environment they work in (own studio, corporation, freelance from home, other)
 * They work outdoors for the shooting part of the job then for the editing part they work either out of their home or small studio.
 * Describe why you are interested in this specific career and what you think it would be like to do this for a living.
 * For a while now I have liked to take close up pictures because they show a different side of the subject many people don’t see at first glance.
 * List the names of three photographers who do this sort of work and list a link to their work or their studio.

 * Write a proposal for your Real World Photography Assignment. What do you plan to do for the assignment? Set up a photo-shoot that mimics the career (Fashion photographer you'd shoot a fashion show, sports photographer you'd shoot a sporting event etc) or will you find a real career photographer and job shadow them and photograph them at work? Explain your plan and the 3-5 image series you plan to shoot. These must be new images shot specifically for this assignment. Can't use old stuff.
