newlogolarge.gifLast Wednesday I put up a poll here on Sublime Light asking readers what kind of experience they have shooting portraits. This was my attempt to get to know you all a little bit better and determine what direction Sublime Light should go in the near future.

I’m happy to see that as of now, 93 people responded to the poll (though this is clearly far short of the 10,000 visitors since Wednesday). I have to admit, the results were a little different than I expected. I don’t really know what I expected to be honest. This site has grown in traffic so quickly I’m reeling to grasp what readers are really into.

The Results

  • 43% of readers say they get by, but really want to know more.
  • 27% say they’re serious photo freaks, but not quite at the pro level.
  • 20% say they’re complete noobs, with the whole world of photography in front of them.
  • Finally, only 10% of responders said they’re pros.

I’d say it’s pretty clear to me that I should keep the majority of the content aimed at the hobby photographer crowd. Most of the pro shooters must be spending their time some place else, at least until this site gets bigger.

Think I should make a different plan? What direction do you want to see Sublime Light go? Let me know in a comment and rest assured I read each and every one.

And if you haven’t responded to the poll yet, here it is again. Help me get better intel and cast your vote!

As a portrait photographer, how experienced are you?
