curlyglenda 0 #1 September 1, 2007 Hi all IM off to empuria brava next march to do my AFF course COME ON, well excited. Im a kean photographer and want to get in to the photrograhphy side of skydiving. I have been told that you can't start the photography till you have atleast 200 jumps under year belt, does this mean you cant start jumping with a camera on your head till then? or just can't start a job in skydiving photography? Any advise would be awsome cheers Curly Life is full of many challenges, their oucome is dependant on the way that you approach them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #2 September 2, 2007 Welcome to the forums! This is a good rule of thumb because you really need to be careful about your own safety and everyone else's. Check out the Photography forum for more info about working in skydiving. Sadly, most videographers I know have to have other jobs that pay the bills.

skymama 37 #4 September 2, 2007 Read the forums, become a packer, work at a dropzone or just go and hang out. There are a lot of ways to get used to the lingo and customs until you are ready to jump.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
