when you first started, how long till you became pro competent at acquiring all your flash knowledge?

did you mainly read, and apply your knowledge? taking notes? what was your reg. workflow like? if you got tips to help those just starting.

other sites you like, could recommend? strobist? kelby? other bookmarks?

i was a graphic art major and there wasn’t anything that i hated/loved more than “crit”! my instructors were all working professionals and they just gave it to you, the good things were good and the bad things were…bad!

you learned about yourself and your own work, but you also learned from others’ endeavors. and no matter how good you thought you were, there was always someone better.

zack, thanks for your honest opinions and a forum for others to be educated, they say the best instructors always learn from their students.

ha! just found you on twitter!

Thank you so much for doing this, Zack. I think it is great that you have offered the time to do this for the photographic community. I have already made many notes for my own site, just based on watching your critique of others. Can’t wait for episode 3! -J.

@Matthew – I’m right there with you! My sites are never ever ever up to date or truly “finished”. I’m about to completely revamp them. I should be done with that in a few years.

Cheers,
Zack

You know, Zack, your generous offer of critique brings to my attention the fact that if I decided to ask for a critique, I wouldn’t even be ready for it right now- my website is still a work-in-progress; it has been for 4+ years… I also put off the major decision of how to separate my different work, since weddings and portraits are my work and landscape photography is my hobby / true passion. So just in case anyone else out there is reading these blog comments, let myself be an example- GET STUFF DONE! It is amazing that I continue to succced professionally, with so many things being a work-in-progress; permanently on hold…

Take care,
