Weekly Photo Assignment 2 : Paparazzi



The paparazzi are always seeking glamour, success, celebrity life, beauty and everything else that is news. The paparazzi live in search of good photos of celebrities and celebrities use the paparazzi to continue the success. It's an exchange of favors. All the good photographers want to get what is on top, a great celebrity pictures can make a huge improvement in a paparazzo's life. But how far will go the "limit of privacy invasion". In my opinion there is a difference between a single paparazzo and a photojournalist, depends in what you want to see, a simple glamour picture or some reality. 

In this assignment I took a pictures of the celebrities' life style. A limousine represents a very glamorous life. A a moment of spontaneity that symbolizes a lifestyle of big money, fans, spot light, people, career and no humility.

As a photographer I want what is news, I want to do my best to get on top and, as I wrote before, a single picture can make that improvement the photographer needs. Be on top can be easy, stay on top not so much; stay on top as a photographer only with photos of celebrities can be interesting, but at the same time boring and unsatisfying. I wish one day take a picture of a very famous person, but I want to take my career in another direction. I love landscape and tourism... and I am going to focus on that to build my career.


Do always your best, as a photographer, is the greatest weapon to succeed we can have. I use a Nikon D300 and captured a moment of glamour and beauty. Good feeling, good photography...
