Starting out in photography can feel overwhelming — but these are the 5 photography tips I wish I knew when I first picked up a camera. Whether you’re a beginner photographer or looking to level up your skills, these lessons will help you grow faster and avoid common mistakes.

Practice constantly — photography is a skill built with repetition.
Market yourself effectively — a great portfolio isn’t enough without visibility.
