OMG it is exactly what my takeaway of this course. At first I thought the course didn’t really tells u much about how to take photos like Petra it was just too general but after I rewatched it several times I started to realize maybe the most important thing that Petra demonstrated for us is that Photography is something that really accessible for everyone and u don’t have to use fancy gears to take amazing pictures. Seeing her using the things that’s accessible to her to create these fascinating images it just suddenly feels less intimidating to pick up the camera to shoot stuff. And having a strong vision of ur work is also something I learned from this course. And the networking point u brings up is so inspiring to me. Great video! Super insightful ❤
Thank you for this! I took part of the course and then my membership timed out. Too dang expensive to renew as you know. I love that you ended up having such a positive outlook on it after time and I think you summed it up beautifully.
Excellent video! You GET Petra. You remind me of Petra and I think you will be very successful if you keep at it. Ian Collins - Petra's father. And, on her behalf...Thank you for being a fan and more important that Petra has given you something that helps. This is actually a gift to Petra. She is extremely generous and loving. Photography was never about gold for Petra.
Omg thank you for the video! Ive always wanted to understand her more as a photographer and you really DIG DEEP!!!! love your videos, can't wait to see more!!!!!!!
Amazing video and very helpful especially for me who’s in photography! Im you 50th subscriber! this channel is extremely underrated and looks so professional. I can definitely see you making it big one day. Keep up the great work and hopefully more content soon 💙
Newjeans’ comeback reminded me of Petra and after a quick search I got your video recommanded. Didnt plan on taking a masterclass but your video was like one so thanks!
First of all, you get an A+ for your video. Amazing job you did with it. I have several things to add, so I might (or might not) turn this into two separate threads. You can't underestimate the points you made about her networking and work rate. Huge. Unfortunately - or fortunately, depends on point of view, I really didn't assist when I was a younger photographer. Unfortunately because one thing about assisting is you see how people solve certain problems and it can save one a lot of grief. It won't eliminate problems but you learn how to become more adept at managing the unexpected, how to deal with clients, etc. The fortunate thing for me, (too late to change it now) is that I didn't have a very good sense of my own direction or identity. I did have ability though from the start. So I well might have allowed myself to develop my style based on the photographers (one in particular) that I admired (and knew personally) so very much. As a result, it took me a lot longer to understand my point of view. My ex girlfriend told me when living overseas, to shoot the things that I was attracted to, that I was passionate about. That took time, but once I worried less about people liking my work, what clients I would get, etc, my work really started to develop to the point where I now see that I have a consistency in the way my photos look, regardless of what I'm photographing. I'll save the other comment, but you make some Very important points in this video!
Nice commentary on a photographer thats new to me. I'm also finding the same is true for a lot of excellent photographers. Usually the ones that really try to nail down how to express their creative vision are the ones that end up being very influential in the space. Also connections matter!
Listen to Maggy. If you really take on board what she says in this video, imho, it will help you as much if not more than the course. Find Other photographers' work that you like as well and maybe let that filter in to your influences. And shoot, shoot, shoot. You'll see what you like, and what you're good at, and see what you're not as good at. Btw, absolutely nothing against taking courses at all, but there might be other one's out there that can help you differently than Petra's. (and I have nothing but respect for Petra). Petra happened to not worry so much about technique. Nothing wrong with that. But I'm not sure I'd recommend it to most young photographers. You don't have to be a technical master..... but just understanding depth of field, shutter speed-aperature connection is Important.... full stop. in that way Petra is a bit of a unicorn. It's not a good thing to go by as a rule of thumb. I hope that helps even a little bit.
helpful video- i would have loved to hear more abt specific settings, developing film, and editing. But as you said she is not a gearhead so maybe its a mystery. love
very bad, you miss some very important point and key. she dont force the subject and person when taking portrait, she dont posing people, and start with long distance . beigning taking portait in longer distant. this is 90% of photograhgy cannot do. make sure those you work with is comfortable. and you also miss the most important skill, its taking monment, create unexpecting impression , and making feel like you close relation with the subject or who you work with. you are just wasting money and value about this mastercourse

omg thank you so much for your thoughtful comment you seriously made my day!!
You nailed it especially with networking and meeting the right people. Of course you need the crafts but for success you need to know people.
