What makes professional photography difficult? What differentiates a professional from an amateur?
In: Other
I know everyone is immediately jumping to quality and composition but honestly the real difficulty of being a professional photography is that they’re running a business.
Anyone can occasionally take outstanding photos. A professional has to do it every time, and consistently.
A professional photographer understands how to deliver a product their customer wants while an amateur can photograph whatever they like without obligation.
A master amateur photographer will produce just as good work as a master professional photographer. If you’re looking for a comparison of skilled vs. unskilled really it’s master vs. novice.
