Question: Are you a professional or hobbyist photographer?

https://www.strawpoll.me/16516621

If you're a pro, tell us about your job. If you're a hobbyist, do you ever want to go pro?

Hobbyist. I don't think I could ever see myself going pro. I already dislike sharing my pictures, I couldn't imagine doing it for someone else I didn't want to share it with.

Hobbyist, I would love to go pro but I don't have a unique name and I'm too much of a pussy to believe that I'll ever be able to quit my job and just believe I can pay all my bills from photography. If the opportunity presents itself I will jump on it, as should anyone.

Hobbyist, but I have had some stuff published and used for websites. Even gotten paid for some stuff. I shoot the events I go to. For example, at rifle/pistol competitions, I will shoot when its not my turn. With kids, I don't have the time to try to make a business out of it.

Hobbyist. I like photography as an artistic outlet, I’d get really pissed taking wedding photos or whatever. Plus I make a lot more than most pro photographers.

hobbyist. Don’t necessarily want to go pro, but I wouldn’t mind earning some money on the side to support my gear habit.

Partially, I guess? I'd like to (in an ideal world where I wasn't a wagey destined for failure) shoot and do stories for Nat Geo, since I've loved it since I was a kid. Either that, or I'd like to be a photo/video journalist once I'm done with school and the military

Hobbyist, I do make a bit of money at the local fashion uni doing shit for the students who can't afford anyone better. However it's my lowest stream of income by far.

hobbyist, i'm doing photography for myself mostly, but would enjoy seeing my pictures in a galery. Started photographing in general to escape reality and maybe to show my feelings through pictures.

sounds gay i know, but it helped me alot when times were rough

Every time I see a strawpoll I think of two things. One is marketing data and the other is news blog poster article ideas based on trends.

I might get a small contract for a photo-essay at the local paper... it's just a very money hungry hobby.
