I am definitely not a pro. I have sold images and done some portraits, but I don't have the big lights, etc. I just like taking pictures around my house and town. Also, vacations and lots of pets and family.
Sorry to say I dont have a Canon Rebel I was going to buy one but something came up and had to spend the money on hospital bills. I am not able to change my profile
I just take pics :) I'll be taking pics for my first challenge entry tomorrow, and my palms are already sweating..hehe!!! But Ive noticed a few here who arent pros (but they could be!)
I'm a graphics designers by day, superhero photographer by night. I do hve lights and studio and do sell professional photographic services, so I guess I'm 50/50
I'm about 35% a photographer. I play at it all the time, and actually work at it when I'm at university. I tell myself that I'm a real one to justify new toys. Maybe one day I'll get there fully. :-)
just a stay at home mom who likes to take pictures and is learning to get better. id like to be a "photographer" someday. but im not yet really. no one wants my work or anything. :(
Software developer here. I am nowhere near what would be considered a professional, but I'm aiming to make some money out of this 'hobby' in the future.
I am a lawyer who occasionally gets out of work in time to take photographs. I suppose that makes me a "professional" and a "photographer", but not at the same time...!
I'm retired and I shoot for my own pleasure. I have big lights and sometimes use them. Been published and have sold some stuff. Belong to a camera club and like to help educate whenever someone wants help.
I'm a marketing director (ex journalist) who sometimes uses lights (product shots and portraits) and filters (mostly polarising) and sometimes gets them published. Long term goal is definitely full-time photos, but in the meantime keep hanging around places like dpchallenge and LEARN!!!
Bottom line is: I LOVE taking photos!
Hope you do too...
I am not a professional photographer, I am a geologist/geochemist dba an IT geek.
HEY! I'm a geologist and IT geek. I use a lot of geochemical analyses (52 elements+) to make pretty plans & sections, so I have a healthy fear of geochemistry, but I'm no geochemist.
I'm a Systems Engineer/Systems Architect/Network Engineer and Admin/Mail Admin/PBX Admin and on and on...
Getting out and taking pictures is my escape from the corporate world, and it worked wonders until they figured out I could take pics for their Tech and User manuals. Hey they bought studio lighting and backdrops so it's all good.
