Been doing photography on a pro basis for around 12/13 years now, never full time admittedly, but I started off doing weddings on a Bronica with said light meter for Wedding Services in the UK, a company owned by Kodak at the time
Where have I contradicted that?
You need to move on my friend, the days of just sticking to one trade in the media are pretty much over, it happens if you are lucky but the number of full time pro photographers is well down and unlikely to recover.
I have also pointed out on this thread that I am a writer and in the past I have made it quite clear on LuLa that photography is just part of the package that I offer my customers. I have also stated that since I started selling myself as a writer I have never been busier with the camera!
A camera is an essential tool of my trade and I have many years experience in using one, which is why I am busy selling my product into various magazines.
And you? Other than posting pretty piccies on Fliker that is. Have you ever gone out with the responsibility of having to return with the goods? Ever done a wedding for instance where the models can't be re-booked for the next day? Covered a story that a publication or company is paying you to get right? The world isn't quite so straightforward when you only have the one chance at a job.
