The reason gatekeeping exists is because anyone can do photography. Some people want to think of themselves as a special person, but the reality is that we’re all drops of water in a huge ocean.
I personally hate photography snobs. They’re worse than most of the serious clay shooters(shotguns for anyone unfamiliar) and competitive archers I’ve met in life.
I don’t do photography as a main career. This allows me to undercut the competition by offering cut prices and free photoshoots. I took 1000+ photos for someone for a 1.5 hour photoshoot. I only charged $40. I usually do these kinds of things for free because I love photography and pissing off jerks.
Probably going to get flak for this.
