Being a photographer can mean many
different things. Anyone who picks
up a camera and clicks the shutter
is a photographer of sorts. More seriously,
for most of us a photographer is someone
who engages a considerable proportion
of their life in photography. Most
of the time people want to know how
they can make a career out of something
that at the moment is just an interest.
Many of us dream of becoming rich
and famous, of having our work shown
in great art galleries, splashed across
the leading fashion magazines and
in large on the newspaper front pages.
While it is always a possibility that
photography will make us a celebrity,
reality tends to be more mundane.
Photography does however offer many
people an interesting and fulfilling
way to make a living. Many jobs in
photography offer a considerable variety
of experiences and the challenge of
finding solutions to new problems.
Many of those who set out to be photographers,
including those who take photo courses,
will end up making a living from other
skills, but photographers will often
continue to photograph and to think
of themselves as photographers. Creativity
is something we all need, and one
way to explore it is through photograph.
