I am already aware of the fact that I could have a sighted person simply take the pictures for me or that I could have them do everything, then let me push the button, so I feel like a big boy, but I like to find ways to do things on my own. I am not allergic to help, and I do ask when I need it, but only when I need it.
The problem I am having right now is taking pictures of items I am wanting to sell online. I do this on the side to make extra money. Currently, my wife takes the pics when she feels like it, and that works out okay, but I'd rather do it myself. The more of this job I do, the better, and it makes the whole process faster, because my wife often takes a while to get around to taking the pics then transferring them to my laptop. I want to get the item photographed and on the internet the same day I bring it home if possible.
I have a few ideas of my own, but I am interested to see what you folks think. I have read up on blind photography, but all I get about the actual process is a very vague description which involves a sighted partner who helps. It leaves me wondering, do they simply set everything up and, as I said before, let them press the button? Then, there's a lot of artsy fluff about changing our perception and "how we see the world", helping us to see things from a different perspective, bla bla bla. None of this helps me.
