A Career In Photography
:
Every artist comes across the same question at some point: what kind of work is feeding my muse, and what kind of work is selling out. Although this question seems pretty relevant when you’re a teenager, it becomes somehow less important as you get older. Don’t get me wrong – there are certain things that you should always treasure. You should always make sure that your own artistic projects stay true to your vision. Not doing so invites disaster. Nevertheless, that doesn’t mean that you can’t take jobs on commission. Look at it as an opportunity to refine your craft and make some money on the side.
Although I have considered myself an artistic photographer for many years, I only recently begun a career in photography.
