John Nicklin replied to Snapper's discussion Should you really stop accepting $200 assignments?"I suppose that the answer to the question depends on several things. How badly does one need the work? How many hours or days will the work take? And how well known is the photographer?
I would think that accepting $200 assignments might allow one…"

Snapper posted a discussionWhen clients fail to pay
There's an interesting discussion over at Rob Haggart's A Photo Editor blog about collecting from overdue clients. It's one of those things you don't think much about when you go into business for yourself, but at some point it's an issue that's going to come up for just about everyone.I am not a professional photographer, but I am self-employed and as I've expanded my client base I've also begun to run into a…See More
Snapper replied to will's discussion Amateur or not?"From my perspective, it's less about how much money you make than the level of commitment you bring.
If you view yourself as an amateur, that means you're not willing to be held entirely accountable for the work you do. It's…"
Snapper posted a blog postSuccess stories
From the Photopreneur blog, an inspiring post about four "amateurs" who've found a measure of fame and, in some cases, fortune by finding the right subject at the right time: abandoned houses, fruits and veggies, a legal interrogation in a neighboring building, and shots from space."It’s always going to be easier for a professional photographer to makesales than it will be for an enthusiast. They have the time and the resources to go out and create the photos that sell. But if you have the…See More

I love to cook, and I love to read food blogs, but I never imagined that reading about food photography could be so, well, delicious. Turns out there's tons of good and engaging information about the topic on the web.For example, Cooking Up a Story has a nicely produced video of food photographer Ed Gowans reflecting on his profession while he works on a job for a local chef. Takes place in his studio, and you get a…See More

Snapper replied to Snapper's discussion Is It a Crime to Photograph a Graffiti Artist at Work?"Yeah, the legal implications of the case are confusing indeed -- particularly when you consider that Lara' first lawyer, the public defender, refused to argue the case on First Amendment grounds, and even the lawyers he eventually hired…"
aydin kirkewoog replied to Snapper's discussion Is It a Crime to Photograph a Graffiti Artist at Work?"I think the key factor in this case involves the "aiding and abetting" aspect of the charges. In other words, was he helping and/or encouraging the act of vandalism? Some might argue that even the act of documenting vandalism might…"
