Digital Camera launched in 2002 and is the world’s leading digital photography magazine. It has been helping photographers of all skill levels to improve their images ever since.
Every issue is packed with technique tips, tutorials, inspiring images and expert buying advice, plus the latest news and equipment reviews, as well as a selection of free gifts (see below).
Making cash with your camera isn’t as difficult as it sounds… with modern digital technology making it so easy to originate content and spread the word about your skills, it could just be a question of finding the right niche to focus on.
That’s the theme of this month’s cover feature, as we curate a series of compelling case studies to show you how to make money from selling prints, shooting paid work, running workshops – and more.
Don’t forget that you can subscribe to Digital Camera magazine and get the magazine delivered to your door every month. Choose between a print or digital subscription, or a bundle of the two.
In Photo Active, you’ll find another 10 all-new projects to shoot, edit or create, including capturing light trails at home, shooting long-exposure coastal scenics and how to get into cosplay photography.
Other highlights include using smoke trails in a creative portrait shoot, how to approach photographing bands and musicians, practical pointers for successful street shoots and some top tips for awesome automotive photography.
