3D printers open up entire new vistas of creativity for photographers. Whether you’re into cosplay and creating costumes and props for your portraits or looking to achieve original shots using intricate rigging and mounting setups that are entirely bespoke to your use case, the ability to take a spool of plastic fiber and turn it into a complex and durable part using an appliance that can fit on a benchtop is, in my opinion, one of the most exciting advancements in the at-home maker movement in years.

As a huge nerd for the history of photography, I've spent a lot of time reading about and studying products of the past. And there have been a lot, to say the least.

It's that time of year again – where spring begins to give way to summer. Soon, the sun will be shining, the days will be getting longer, and it's time to start planning those summer photography trips and travels.

Building a website to showcase your work is also a good idea, but have you thought about entering photo contests?

With every year that goes past, photography becomes more and more accessible to the average person. Compared to even a decade ago, even the most basic cameras – including those on your smartphone – produce excellent images. Moreover, you can find plenty of free resources and classes that give you all the information you need to succeed.

Capturing the right angle while focusing on not being injured while grabbing some air is probably the toughest thing about using an action camera.
