Hello guys hope you all are doing well.
I am interested in photography for around 4 years now and started to take pics around 3 years ago. I like how I feel when I get a satisfying shot through hard work in capturing and editing.
People have praised me for my work and I too can feel that I’m somewhat talented though I do feel I gav a lot to learn in terms of editing and advanced framing techniques.
My work can be found on “@morningdewseveningskies” on Instagram and also on my profile here on reddit if you anyone want to see it.
I’m a final year college student who isn’t interested in his degree / domain.
Is it possible to make a good living out of this hobby / passion? Are there any photographers with advice?
Would love to hear your thoughts guys, thank you!
your photography have to serve a purpose, who are you targeting ? what benefit would someone have to hire you or buy your picture ? … there is a lot of marketing involved and an instagram wont be enough a proper website and also all the booking form or contract needed to make the client feel safe … it is basically running a full business …there will be a lot of front investment and maybe very little or even no return in the first years the market is overcrowded everywhere … it is also better to be extremely consistent with your portfolio … i love doing landscape photography but i make zero money from it so you wont see any of it on my website
Right thanks could u share your website to get an idea?

i would advise you you check the booking page and click on the rule and regulation link this is the part most photographer seems to neglect and it backfire very badly when things don’t go according to plan
