I take photographs strictly for fun and people tell me I should start a business. I just feel silly because it really does seem like everyone with a camera that cost over $300 is calling themselves a photographer. There are some really good photographers out there, but it has become the new real estate agent - everyone is doing it.


I agree. There are so many people in my area doing the same thing. I have never gone to school for photography but I do take pictures (nice ones) of family & friends & get paid pretty good. I have a friend from high school that has no training, takes good photos then she screws them up by over photoshopping a photo...I'm sorry, but you shouldn't do so much photoshopping where the grass is suppose to be green & now it's yellow & think that photo looks great. NO!
