What is the best path I would need to go after to become a Photographer Or Videographer ?

I've been doing wildlife photography and making my own videos on YouTube and Instagram. I have started a business but would like to work for a company or people. I applied for video productions this fall, but would like to find photography jobs beforehand that I can have experience in doing more. What are the best places near my area where I can get into contact with any photography or videography jobs just for experience

What should I study: Photography or Filmmaking? Please help. Thank you.

I'm a 28 years old young man who recently graduated from a local university with a B.Sc Hons Degree in Tourism and Hospitality Management. I have always been passionate about photography and filming. I want to study either one of these two probably in the next coming year of 2025. Should I choose filmmaking or photography? I'm battling with my mind regarding which option should I go for, because I have a massive passion for both. Moreover, I'm a very dedicated writer, artist-painter and graphic designer. #film-production #photography #photography

What about photography?

Hi my name is Yunuelle or you can call me Yun. I'm going to high school next year. So basically I'm thinking about doing photography. My dad is a photographer and I did this one event with him. He also does videos and after I edit them. And I guess you can say I'm good. My favourite part though is editing. Even though it takes forever. But after the event, I wasn't too sure anymore. I also really want to be successful. So my questions are, Is doing photography worth it? Is it good money to have a great life? And what is the most you've traveled?

How Do We Take Pictures Of Our Band That Look Professional?

How would we go about taking pictures of our band, we want something professional that we can post to our social media accounts to get more interaction out of our audience, we don't know wether we should pay a photographer to take pictures of us, or if its something our buddies could do with their iPhone. We just need more engaging pictures, and something to show places we want to get gigs at.

What are the opportunities for photographers?

At my high school, I'm in the yearbook program. I take pictures of sports (usually volleyball) I'm a sophomore and this is my second year in the yearbook. I'll admit I've definitely gotten better at taking photos and getting action shots, but I want to get better. I know I for sure want to continue taking photos of sports but what other opportunities are there for photographers?

How do I proceed when I have a lot of possible careers but not enough experience in any to work full-time?

I realized late into my college experience that I didn't want to work a math job at all so I finished out my Math degree and am now struggling to find a full-time job I feel qualified for. I have a list of 5 or so potential careers (Including but not limited to: Singer-Songwriter, Writer, Naturalist, Photographer, Artist), but I don't feel like I'm at the point where I could pursue any of them full-time. I'm wondering if I should just get a math job and explore the other options in my free-time, if I should just find any job related to my current interests, or if I should put off getting a full-time job until I get a little clearer in my objective. I'm alright on cash for now, I'd just prefer not to live with my parents for longer than I have to. I'm most likely overthinking this and you probably would need some more information to give a solid path forwards, but whatever. I'm here to listen. Thanks for all your help!

How do I pick just one career path?

Hi, I honestly have no idea what career would be best for me. One I could succeed in, I want to be a nurse but at the same time a photographer and a writer. I do write stories because I have a lot of ideas in my head, and photography my dad got me into that and I love it. I am only in high school right now and got two years to think about it, but it will go by so fast. Also, not comfortable with asking the counselor because it feels like they judge more that helping.
