from Open Shutter Live · host Paul Yeghouchian

Michael Lekas shares his experience of being a sports, model, and landscape photographer and how these different niches while all different, also compliment each other in certain ways. Michael got into film photography during high school and still kept up with it throughout his life, switching over to digital. He eventually got into motorsports photography. He shares his tips and tricks on how to shoot this type of sport and how he used his experience to shoot other sports such as photography, basketball, and gymnastics. Not shying away from other niches, he got into model photography and how he learned other skills like lighting to enhance his images. Michael, a constant learner, shares what he wants to get better at, and details the importance of networking with other photographers to hone your craft and expand your skills. He lists the people that inspire him and what he wants his work to be known for overall. A huge thank you to Michael for sharing his knowledge and experience and you'll be sure to take away some knowledge no matter what sort of photographer you are! https://www.instagram.com/michael.lekas4/ Thanks for watching/listening and subscribe for more pods! https://www.instagram.com/openshutteryoutube/
