On a different note, fine art photography, is still an offshoot of fine arts and it requires certain artistic quality and univesal beauty before it can really be called  fine art . The fine art photography scene in Miami does not only cater to locale artists but also to other artists from other places, even those from Asia (like Ja Young Yoon in the ABBA Fine Art Centre) that chooses to have their works exhibited in Miami. However, not just anyone can be a fine art photographer nor can anyone just avail such services because compared to the more commecialized type of photography like portrait or events, fine art photographers are more expensive. However, there is a tremendous difference to how more artistic, professional and creative fine art photographs are even if it is very expensive, it must be very worth it as people keep on taking up the profession more (with classes being offered at the Art Center South Florida) and groups establishing more studios. Miami, Florida is not just the Land of the Best Beaches in the future, it might even be known as the Land of the Finest Fine Art Photographers ever seen.
