Photographers are normally not known for being just general photographers. A professional photographer would normally specialise in one area, however work activities will vary according to the amount of work a specialised photographer does. Some examples of activities photographers may do are working with the clients to get an idea of the photo’s they are requiring, some photographer may do some research and make preparations for the shoot and finally another example a photographer may work on different locations and see what works well to the clients requirements. Nowadays half of professional photographers are mostly self-employed. An advantage for being a self employed photographer means they are in control of all the work that is produced so therefore if they are working on a photo shoot they then take on the role of a Director and quite possibly be an Editor for the photo’s they take. All the money they make they can keep, this is known as making a profit. A disadvantage however for a self-employed photographer without have an employer the photographer has the job of finding and to develop new clients. Also while without a fixed salary the levels of income are uncertain.
The remaining half would work for a wide range of photography company employers, these usually include
