I’ve always wanted to do photography full time and now that my chance is here I’m having doubts. I do pretty well on the side of my 9-5 but just can’t seem to figure what it will be like if I can’t pull in enough to match my 9-5. my wife does well at her job and said it wouldn’t matter but that’s right now. I also want to retire someday. any advice from people who shoot full time?
Then I think you could stand in good stead to go for it. That’s life as a freelancer, as said. Get a few months saved up as a ‘bad month’ fund, and go for it. But you need to really go for it. You need to be making 110% most months, to make up for the 70% months.
