RashadP4P1 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 They already started a website and done some photoshoots with a few clients in terms of being successful do you think that they should not work and do photography full time ?

LegoPig Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 There is loads of money in it if you are good. A lot easier now with the internet, people can get a much wider audience. Just make sure he stops the ability to download samples off his website otherwise he is giving them away for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leiting Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 From my understanding the only real money from is in portrait photography. Taking family pictures, wedding engagement photos, performance headshots, etc. But if they've managed to find a viable means to support themselves doing something they love, I would consider them exceptionally lucky and as a friend you should support them pursuing their passion.

LegoPig Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 In all honesty if I had the money I would spend a bucket load on good photo's and painting. I can spend hours looking at them. I love going to art shops and stuff when I go on holiday. But alas good art can only be afforded by the ridiculously rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leiting Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 So you don't think that they should have a plan b? I think everyone should have a contingency plan, weather they are a budding musician, an investment banker, middle management at a Fortune 500, or a photographer. Nobody knows what tomorrow brings, and the more diversity you have in what you can offer to the world the better. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't support them in their current endeavors. If they're able to make a living off it right now and they enjoy what they're doing, I'd suggest they're far better off than a majority of the world currently.
