A €800 a month side hustle that’s quite easy to do.
Nightclub photography
Introduction
This is quite a simple side hustle that will require a little investment up front in terms of equipment and learning. But once you’ve gotten used to your equipment and find a client it can be quite a lucrative business.
Nightclub photography.
Equipment needed
In order to do this you are going to need 4 things
- A camera ( I recommend the canon 70D )
- A flash ( you will need one with a bend to adjust for low light / not washing out your subject )
- A good camera lens ( with an F-stop of 2.6 — 1.8 or wider )
- Earplugs ( an absolute requirement )
Learning investment
In order to do this you are going to need to learn a few fundamentals of photography. I’ll go through a few of these in order of importance
Exposure
This is going to be your biggest nightmare with nightclub photography. You are going to be in a low light setting with lights all around you and you’re going to have to find an exposure that works for you with the light provided in the venue.
