I can't think of a worse time go into photography as a profession. But, after all, the world belongs to those who hustle. In the portrait and wedding business just be prepared be undercut by the guys that will hand over a disk and be done with it. With the convenience of digital, everyone is a photographer these days.

I am a Emergency/Family Medicine Physician working on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation. My shifts are 168 hours at a time around the clock! How is that for manly! And you can imagine the type of things I see in the ER on the weekend on a reservation. The difference up here is that the hospital is only 14 beds and staffing is limited. If a couple of cars end up getting into a rollover motor vehicle accident at 3:00am I am it,no specialists,no trauma center. We are the trauma center. It is a manly situation indeed and I am loving it. I am also a part-time professional magician. Check it out at magicchicago.com. Take care. -Mike Interview me for “So You Want My Job”.

I dig the Hill Christmas card! Being a sports photog, getting to rub elbows with some of the best athletes in the world has to be a perk. Have you ever become close friends with any of your subjects, or is it strictly professional? My wife is a photographer & some of the stuff she gets is amazing! I dig the Hill Christmas card!

She does children, families and portraits. I agree that you need to shoot often and not worry so much about classes. It has taken my wife a few years to build a client base and get busy enough to start contributing to the income of our household. But she really enjoys her profession.
