So you have decided to go for it because you have established that you truly have that something extra to go Pro and are ready to tackle all that comes along with running a business. The next step then is to get your craft down pat and practice, practice, practice! Don’t make the mistake that you are going to book jobs and make a decent living out of your photography by continuing the same workflow you use as an amateur. Just because the majority of photographers use DLSR’s now it doesn't mean you can disregard needing to have any knowledge of how your camera functions outside of auto mode. As a Pro, not only do you need to be able to handle your camera as an extension of yourself, you need to a strong command of the basic rules of composition and lighting techniques. To really succeed as a professional photographer who earns a full living from your work, you cannot be just snapping away with your digital camera gawking at the screen after every single shot until you get it right. I also highly suggestion not basing the bulk of your work flow on “creating” your imagery in post on your computer. Do your work in camera as much as possible and save your time and energy from having to edit and fix every frame in various programs in post for being able to handle all the other aspects of running a photography business. Every shoot involves some level of trouble shooting – a Pro is going to know how to quickly resolve any issues and move on to swiftly and effectively create the high quality images expected by a client. Doing so comes from knowing your craft. 学习和练习 所以如果你决定好了，也已经确定你真的有一些额外的东西可以成为专业摄影师，并且你已经准备好处理随之而来的工作，那么接下来你要做的就是学习和练习，练习，再练习! 如果你想要继续使用业余方式来完成专业摄影的工作，这样是错误的。大多数摄影师现在使用的是DLSR，但这并不意味着你不需要知道自动模式之外的功能。作为一个专业人士，你不仅需要能够把你的照相机作为自己有效的工具，你还需要对构图和照明技术的基本规则有很强的掌控力。 想成为一名专业的摄影师，不能光只盯着摄影机的屏幕就期待能把事情做好。我还强烈建议，不要把你大部分的工作都用在电脑“创造”图像上面。 尽可能多使用相机，节省时间和精力，减少编辑和修改的工作，以便能够处理摄影中其他方面的事情。 每次拍摄都会遇到不同程度的难题——专业人士知道如何快速解决问题，并迅速有效地制作出客户期望的高质量图像。 所谓实践出真知。
