Reply To: How many make their living from photography

[Notaphotographer]

TXGRL,  I feel your pain. I  have friends who have made a good living for years, that are now just scrapping by or like you have given it up as a means of support. To me this is the real crime of the fauxtographer. What none of the ones  realize ,who say that one day they hope to make a career out of photography, is that the very thing they are doing is going to prevent them from ever making it a career. Photography as a business is almost dead. Killed by the fauxtographers, digital, and the biggest killer of all, a public that will settle for mediocrity.
