Photojournalism in my Future

One of my goals I have after graduation is to use the basic photojournalism skills I have learned. So I can take great family photos and they not come out messed up. Photojournalism has taught me the proper steps in taking good photos. I now know how to use proper focusing and using proper rules in photography. I also now know how to use aperture and how to use a blur effect in taking photos when the object is in motion. I also now know how to make a pdf if I was ever to need to use it in the future.
