Don’t Go to Photography School

Do not go to photography school. Serious waste of time and money. Better to just learn for yourself via trial and error, by experimenting by yourself, watching YouTube videos, and reading websites blogs and forums than to waste serious $$$ (and time) to go to photo school. I used to think: If you get a full ride, or you can go to photography school for free… it is a good idea. Now I take that back. Even if your photography education was fully-paid for and free … photography school is bad because: Waste of your time (4 years you can rather do something more interesting … Industrial Design major at RISD seems like a ‘real’ major you can actually learn true technical skills like 3D, etc). Your photos become generic. If you go to photo school, what will happen to you? You will become indoctrinated with the boring type of photo — apathetic, bored, and dis-interested photos of miserable people looking miserable. https://erickimphotography.com/blog/2020/09/26/dont-go-to-photography-school/
