How should I say this correctly?

You should continue what you did.

You should continue what you have done.

You should continue of what you did.

You should continue of what you have done.

    Repeating the phrase is not the way to have your friend that she should reconsider going back into be a photograph. Look at some of her photos, point out the she made some men and women who wanted good wedding photos of their marriages. She also must have taken photos of people who were sick and made them feel better after they had their pictures things she accomplished in her photos. Go through a number of pictures of some people who may be important. Make her feel that her photos are needed and make people remember good things about themselves. Any way, you have to sell the idea that she and her photography are important because they make people who want to do great things in the world. Good luck. I was a college professor of education.

    If she stopped doing it and is not currently doing it, telling her to continue is not correct. Continue applies to things that are happening now. Most people would say "you should take up photography again".

    You really can't continue doing something that

    you stopped doing years ago. I would recast the

    sentence to something like "You should take up

    photography again."

    I think you should emphasize and make it sound like her photos were amazing and that it's a great talent.
