Ten Great Photography Blogs

Posted on 25. Feb, 2009 by Adam in Blogging

Photography is a wonderful freelance career for many talented photographers. I love looking at creative photography as many of the photos tell a such a unique story. The advent of the internet has spawned a never-ending line of image-hungry websites all vying for the best and brightest pictures to draw traffic. Even if you start as just a part time business, you can still make excellent money, and who knows? Maybe one day you’ll throw that corporate job to the wind and decide to become a full time photographer! Need some inspiration? I’ve got a list of ten fantastic photography blogs that will get you excited about pursuing the job of your dreams:

The more time you spend thinking about it, the more money you’re losing

1. Chromasia: http://www.chromasia.com/

Based in the UK, this artist dabbled in photography for twenty years, but says that “it was only when I started posting images on the internet that I really began to take it seriously.” Since 2003 he has established his company chromasia, traveled around the world and won numerous awards. His portfolio ranges from portraits to the abstract.

2. Vanilla Days: http://www.vanilladays.com/

This photographer went to school to become a software engineer but after he bought his first digital camera, he started designing websites; then quit to be a photographer full time. He focuses on urban settings and ‘relaxed’ landscapes.

3. The Blackbird and the Moon Flower: http://travelstock.inebeerten.be/index.php

Freelance photographer travels around the world taking beautiful photographs which she sells on her blog. Not a bad way to make a living. There are some particularly beautiful shots of Asian art and architecture on this blog.

4. Photoschau: http://www.photoschau.de/index.php

A stunning photo blog that favors still life images in vivid color. The artist’s unique view of even the most common objects is a delight! Using organic and non-organic subjects, he provides a unique view of the world that hearkens back to childhood when everything is a brand new experience.

5. Deceptive Media: http://www.deceptivemedia.co.uk/

Texture and pattern are explored through intimate views of the subject matter often at extreme close up angles. Water and clouds feature predominately throughout this artists’ portfolio.

6. Accessible: http://www.accessible.de/pixelpost/index.php

Landscapes and natural images with an almost melancholy simplicity. The photographer uses various techniques to add an element of fantasy to the otherwise simple, everyday beauty of the subjects.

7. San Francisco Daily Photo: http://www.sanfranciscodailyphoto.com/

Proof that you don’t have to be a globe-trotter to capture amazing images; this photographer simply walks the streets of his city, snapping photos on a daily basis and posting them to his blog. If you’ve ever spent time in San Francisco, these photos will make your heart sing.

8. Made in Tokyo: http://www.fgautron.com/weblog/

Another great city blog featuring the great Japanese city of Tokyo featuring architecture, landscapes, and lots of human interest; this blog is a wonderful glimpse into a culture that fascinates millions around the world.

9. Isoticia Everyday: http://www.istoica.com/everyday/index.php

A pair of collaborating portrait photographers have combined their talents on this photoblog with stunning images of people and animals. Hip, stylish, and fun—these photos highlight the unique beauty in each and every person.

10. My Glass Eye: http://www.myglasseye.net/

A unique portfolio with portraits, stills and editorial shots that express the unique viewpoint of the artist; one that captures real world images in stark honesty.

Photographer Pogus Caesar launches new UK book.

‘Sparkbrook Pride’ feature 70 images of the residents of Sparkbrook, an inner city area of Birmingham. What’s of interest, Caesar still uses an antique 1980′s Canon Sureshot film camera. Remarkable results.

First, thanks so much for the post. I have definitely added a few new photo blogs to my rss feed :)

As for self-promotion, I’m with Kirsty… How does one really promote a photo blog? I’ve been doing searches, posting in comments and such. I have a good social media presence, but still could always use more. So in that regard, I invite you to visit

This is a great post this has fired up my love for photography even more. i would like to mention a quote which expresses the power of photography:
“I never question what to do, it tells me what to do. The photographs make themselves with my help.”

This is a great post and I’m going through each entry now. I love photos. Unfortunately, I had to hold off publishing my own photos because my career takes me away from home so much…and I didn’t have a smart phone when I started this, but am now publishing all my old photos on my own blog. I will be able to easily upload new digital photos as I take them. The blog includes photos of locations I’ve seen while traveling across the US as a driver.
