If you manage to keep them all by the time the chimes are ringing in 2019, declare yourself an official photography saint\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"s2\">1. I will\u2026 always format my cards<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">It\u2019s easy to get into the bad habit of just whacking any old memory card into your camera and shooting away. That\u2019s fine until one day something goes wrong and you lose a bunch of files. We\u2019re not saying a format of a card is always going to prevent that, but it can help. Besides, it makes importing and sorting through photos much easier if you only have one session on the card at a time. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">So, before you start a new project, trip, portrait session, or whatever it is, get into the habit of heading into the menu and formatting your cards.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">2. I will\u2026. always shoot in raw format<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">There\u2019s a reason photography magazines always bleat on about shooting in raw format. It really does offer the best flexibility in case anything should go awry with exposure, white balance, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Files take up more room on your hard drive, but you\u2019ll be grateful if you just miss out on the perfect shot because of dodgy lighting or something else which can be saved by processing a raw shot. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Head to your camera\u2019s menu and change to shooting RAW+JPEG &#8211; it makes sense to shoot both formats at the same time so you still have something quick to share.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Continues below&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[collection name=&#8221;small&#8221;]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">3. I will\u2026. always back up properly <\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The time you realise you should have backed usually comes after a catastrophic disaster, such as a memory card giving up the ghost, losing it in the washing machine, or even worse, a theft. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Get into the habit of backing up your files (more than once if you can), as soon as is logistically possible. Don\u2019t put it if off until it\u2019s too late. Consider backing up to an online cloud service too, so that you can always access your photos no matter where you are, and don\u2019t have to rely on functioning hardware.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_116021&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1300px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-116021\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/digital-storage-media-1443484_1280.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/digital-storage-media-1443484_1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/digital-storage-media-1443484_1280.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/digital-storage-media-1443484_1280.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/digital-storage-media-1443484_1280.jpg?resize=1240,827 1240w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/digital-storage-media-1443484_1280.jpg?resize=900,600 900w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/digital-storage-media-1443484_1280.jpg?resize=562,375 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Credit: Photo-Mix\/Pixabay<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">4. I will\u2026. organise my files sensibly <\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">It\u2019s all well and good having your files backed up promptly, but if your organisational system is all over the place, you almost might as well not bother. The simple truth is, if it takes you an hour to find a photo every time you go looking, you\u2019ll soon think of it as a chore and may not even bother. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">There are lots of different systems you could use, but whatever you use, make sure it\u2019s sensible and easy to navigate (for you). So you could arrange by date, by event, by person, by place. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">You could use a combination of all of the above by tagging your shots when you import them.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">5. I will\u2026. clean my lenses regularly and look after my lens caps<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">When you\u2019re out on a busy shoot, it can be quick and easy to chuck your lenses back into your bag without much care or attention. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">If you keep doing that, over time, little bits of dust and dirt can add up to one big problem. If you\u2019re shooting something quick that requires quick changes, make sure you go through your bag after the shoot has finished, reattaching lens and rear caps. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Give your lenses a spring clean every few months with a lens cleaning cloth and fluid for good measure too. Always make sure your lenses are speck free before heading out on a photography job &#8211; it\u2019s better to do that at home than waste time out in the field.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_116022&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1300px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-116022\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/dark-2559996_1280.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dark-2559996_1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dark-2559996_1280.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dark-2559996_1280.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dark-2559996_1280.jpg?resize=1240,826 1240w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dark-2559996_1280.jpg?resize=900,600 900w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dark-2559996_1280.jpg?resize=562,375 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Credit: StockSnap\/Pixabay<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">6. I will\u2026 clean my sensor <\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The peril of an interchangeable lens system is that the sensor can be susceptible to floating dust and dirt particles. That\u2019s especially true if you use a mirrorless system that doesn\u2019t at least have the mirror in the way to offer some protection. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">If your camera has sensor cleaning in the body itself, make sure to enable that. Basically, this will vibrate the sensor and cause any loose dirt to fall off. For more stubborn bits, use a blower to remove the particles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Pay attention to how clean your sensor is on a regular basis, especially when shooting certain subjects, such as narrow aperture landscapes &#8211; any dust particles will become obvious in any wide expanses of sky. It\u2019s better to spend a few minutes checking your sensor is clean than hours in Photoshop spot healing all your shots.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">7. I will\u2026 reset my camera at the end of every session <\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Say one night you\u2019re shooting at a low light concert with the ISO settings ramped up, and the next day you\u2019re photographing a well lit outdoor portrait. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">You absently mindedly forget to check the ISO setting and all of your daytime photos end up being shot at ISO 3200. Not ideal. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Make it a habit to reset your camera to basic settings at the end of every session and silly mistakes like that shouldn\u2019t happen.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_116023&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1300px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-116023\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/dslr-2350077_1280.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dslr-2350077_1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dslr-2350077_1280.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dslr-2350077_1280.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dslr-2350077_1280.jpg?resize=1240,826 1240w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dslr-2350077_1280.jpg?resize=900,600 900w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/dslr-2350077_1280.jpg?resize=562,375 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Credit: Fifaliana\/Pixabay<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">8. I will\u2026 do my editing in a reasonable time frame<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">There\u2019s something to be said for coming back to edit your shots after some time away. However, you should try and avoid taking that to extremes and ending up with a backlog of editing that frankly you start to wonder if you\u2019ll ever tackle. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Set an alert on your phone or calendar when it\u2019s been one month since a particularly big shoot to gently remind you to take a look and edit them (if you haven\u2019t done already).<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">9. I will\u2026 try something outside of my comfort zone <\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">It can be extremely tempting to stick with the type of photography you know and love. However, pushing yourself to try something out of your comfort zone &#8211; perhaps you always shoot landscapes, you could try portraits &#8211; will expand your skills as a photographer, making you more well rounded, and you might even have fun.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_116024&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1300px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-116024\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/photographer-3020145_1280.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/photographer-3020145_1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/photographer-3020145_1280.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/photographer-3020145_1280.jpg?resize=600,400 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/photographer-3020145_1280.jpg?resize=1240,826 1240w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/photographer-3020145_1280.jpg?resize=900,600 900w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/01\/photographer-3020145_1280.jpg?resize=562,375 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Credit: Quangpraha\/Pixabay<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">10. I will\u2026 seek out inspiration <\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Again, it can be easy to get stuck in a rut with your photography, but seeking out inspiration from others, advice articles, galleries, websites and more can really give you the creative jolt you need. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">There\u2019s literally millions of sources of inspiration out there, with something to suit pretty much anybody and any budget. Look out for photography exhibitions near you &#8211; other exhibitions work well too, the rules of composition apply across both painting and photography for instance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Pick up a book by somebody you admire, your local library should have plenty in stock.
