Twitter – SingStrong

I am taking a break from the blog today! Yesterday, there was quite a lot of activity on my Twitter account. Follow me @rassigborneo to see some of the postings from last weekend’s SingStrong a cappella music festival. I have started posting some of my favorite photos on my Twitter feed to show to the performers. There were so many great performances, and the lighting setup on the stage really helped to make some dynamic photos. I’ll post more on the blog here in the coming week. Have a nice rest of the weekend!

Overall, I really enjoy sharing my images on the blog. It is my own space on the web, but undoubtedly social media has a lot of reach. At this time, I realized how much after this music festival. Especially with the enthusiastic fans getting such close access to their favorite musicians, these photos were shared many times! Being that I am new to the Twitter game, please send me along some tips. I enjoy the interaction with fans and other photographers. Moreover, I also find other similar photographers as people tag their favorites along with mine! It is an amazing way to make new connections.

It is always nice to see your work published in places other than your blog! The latest issue of Sheer Dance Magazine has some photos from the USA Dance Mid-Atlantic Championships. There were dancers from their local area that competed. With this in mind they requested that some of my photos be used to accompany their story. I am adding this to the collection!

Magazine Photo Prints

Thanks to the publishers that run this magazine. They were up front with their request. Photographers are very nervous about having their work stolen online, but sharing work is the best way to get your name out there. If you are a publication that is looking for good images, please do not steal work from photographers or other artists that work just as hard to produce the work in the first place. It can be mutually beneficial to reach out and discuss what both are looking for in exchange for usage.

I have found that being open to opportunities to share work has really opened a lot of other avenues for me. It shows that I have a good collection of images spanning a length of time, and it gives confidence that I can go and create more strong images in the future for prospective clients. Having additional reach through publications is really an important marketing piece for photographers, and I encourage others to do the same. Share your work with as many as you can! You never know who may read an issue, and remember the impact that you images create.
