Become a professional photographer

I guess I would consider myself semi-pro? I do not do photography fulltime but I have done stock photography since 2006 and am somewhat successful. Plus I do a lot of model, portrait and catalog work. I still have a regular full-time job outside of photography as well… so I will have to figure out how I define “pro”. :-)

Just skip photographing weddings. These are such highly emotional events it is very difficult to make everyone happy or get everyone to cooperate. Taking pictures of the BMX bike racers is much more fun. Lizards too make rewarding portraits.

I guess I have to start submitting.
I find other things to do while I’m online…lol

And, I’ve already made some money on people downloading my work, so I’m excited! I’m ready to make more!

Ok, so i am trying! I’ve been taking classes and looking into workshops to learn more. I’ve joined a local photog group, F32 which opens alot of avenues and puts me in touch with alot of talented people! I have an awesome teacher I took some classes with,who doesn’t seem to mind me asking alot of questions and let’s me tag along on outtings! I’m also planning to post some work online for sale. Wish me Luck! www.pbase.com/mzloca

Taking photos has always been a passion of mine and once I get a professional photographers camera..I am going to start doing some freelance work and get my name out there! Hopefully within a few years I’ll have my photos being published in magazines and other articles.
