The Business Of Photography: RAWtalk Episode #090

Photography can be many things, it can be fun, it can be an obsession, it can be a release from the world and it can be a business.  Chances are if you are following my Podcast and website you are looking to become a better photographer and in many cases make money with your photography.    The business of photography is not easy.  So many people think that being a full time photographer is the most glamours job in the world.  Il be the first to tell you there is nothing better than to get paid to take photos.  On the flip side I don’t spend as much time as I would like actually shooting.  Business, branding and marketing is where my time as a photographer gets spent.   With all of that said, I asked you guys to ask me business related questions so I can try and shed some light on the business side of photography.   I answered more questions than I have on any other podcast.  I also wanted to make very clear that there are no secrets to being successful.  Not everyone will succeed at being a full time photographer but there is no reason why you can’t make good money at being one.    All I can say is keep on shooting and fighting.  If you want something bust your ass for it.  Work harder then you have ever worked before.  Be smart, take calculated risks but don’t over step before it’s time.    A BIG THANK YOU goes out to Atoms who is releasing very soon the Nijna Star which is a $299 tool that may just change how we all record video.     For the full news stories and more please go to FroKnowsPhoto.com/rawtalk-90
