Recommend a job that involves photography and creative writing?
Asked by Gattu9005
I'm really into photography and would quite like a job involving it however i do NOT want to take pictures of people (weddings and stuff), i like taking arty/creative pictures. I also love writing and I have been thinking of writing for a teenage magazine and hopefully being able to get photography in there as well. Has anybody got any ideas on what job I could do that involves my kind of photography and writing and how I could get there.

Best Answer:
many years ago i sent an email to the then editor of a local magazine / periodical. it simply said, you need me. that was 8 years ago. these days, i edit, i do page layouts, create advertising (imagery and copy) write articles and create quizzes. i also teach. and i do weddings at the weekend. (it pays, and it pays well) you need good writing skills, the ability to use good grammar, in context, aimed at your readers ability. you need to be able to use either microsoft office, (word and publisher) or adobe's Cs3 /photoshop. and although Cs3 is a complicated expensive bit of kit, its the best there is. however, at a beginners level, try gimp (its free) or try paintshop pro (which i learned on) and to be honest, i still do 90% of my photo editing on it, only going to photoshop for the bits PSP cant do. and when looking at 2000 shots, you want to be productive. oh yeah, we make it look easy... its not. you may want to take a online course which will give you some sort of a practical training and technical knowlege, as there is a differnce between liking something, and knowing about it.
