★ A Photographer’s List of Goals

Jorge Quinteros:

• Attend a photowalk
• Meet a professional photographer
• Get published in a magazine
• Sell a print
• Get acquainted with a complete stranger and photograph him/her
• Get sponsored for a photographic assignment abroad
• Have a photography featured in Pictory
• Attend a workshop
• Take on at least 1 payed gig
• Buy the lens you always talk about owning (Nikon 17-35mm f/2.8)
• Create a photo book to sell
• Photograph Machu Pichu in Peru
• Photograph the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt
• Photograph a riot or rally
• Photograph a parade
• Have a gallery exhibit
• Write a guest post on a prominent photography website

That’s an ambitious list. I’d say that these overlap in a big way to my goals (yet to be published).
