So you want to be a photographer? With all the glitz and glamour, equipment purchases of $5-10K and likely a few years of schooling, you’ll still be ahead working at McDonalds while you try to build your business on the side.
At least you get discounted meals while smelling like a french fry all day.
Despite the dismal wages, the real benefit of being a photographer is that you are not stuck in an office or restaurant all day, can be creative and build your reputation and stock images to eventually make much more than a McDonalds employee.
