Do you make any money at this ? Enough to afford upgraded equipment costs etc.. I was just curious..
I have a 24.2 mp Nikon that takes amazingly clear pictures, it's not the newest 45 mp Nikon FX full frame that costs $ 3995.00 body only...I've got the Z7 Mirrorless on my Christmas wish list.

Just about any newer model camera can take great pictures ‘’snapshots’’. The skill of taking a great photograph is another matter. A photographer sees and composes the the entire scene using light and shadows, proper composition, depth of field and focus to highlight the subject. Then there is natural light vs flash, in studio or on location a long with 100’s of other details.

Equipment is the most expensive part of being a photographer and least important.

Of course I could be wrong, just my 2 cents.

You are...not wrong.

I will say that I've worked with both cheap equipment and expensive equipment. Let's just say if expensive equipment and cheap equipment got into a fight, expensive would bend cheap over and POUND HARD.

Of course, there are exceptions. Some cheap(er) equipment is surprisingly great, and becomes part of your permanent arsenal.

That said, you can a happy medium. First things first is getting your skills up, which only comes with repetition. Cheap(er) equipment has its place in the hierarchy. It's designed and priced for those on the come up.

Unless you're born into money, getting better equipment is a progressive process. While you're doing that, feel free to wear out your cheap(er) stuff.

If you don't mind my asking, What DSLR is best for under 1000? Nikon or Canon? I have to buy a DSLR that does good video too. I have a side gig with a Instagram model and I want to do a good job. Do you think 4k is the way to go? I'm seeing porns shot with 4k they look better than HD.
Thanks for any expert opinions. Not easy to find good advice from pros like you guys who shoot the boudoir style. The opinions on the net run to the 1000s I can't follow it all.

Coke vs Pepsi. Pizza Hut vs Dominoes. Errrr,...Left Twix vs Right Twix (I couldn't think of any more).

It's personal preference between the two brands, really. Camera bodies all do juuuust about the same things. Both have upgrade level stuff, that pretty much parallel as well. The lenses are what you should focus on, because you can [USUALLY] carry them over when you upgrade your camera body.

Once you outgrow a camera, you'll want to upgrade, and the lenses for that same brand can be used on the new body.

Canon 5D, the 7T, and 7D are all under $1,000, and they come with kit lenses (A KIT LENS, meaning 1 lens...typically).

Nikon D5300, D7200, D90 fall in comparable price ranges, also with at least one kit lens.

I would say go to a store, like Best Buy, where they physically have camera bodies available...or a camera store, if there's a local one...go to the store, PICK UP AND HOLD both brands, and see which one feels better. See which one's controls feel better. The more comfortable you are with that, the more you'll like it.

I was thinking this. Yes, any newer camera can take a great shot. However, it's the person behind the camera that creates the art of photography. Understanding lighting, understanding how to use shadows, directing a lady on how to pose...that's takes skill.
