What makes professional photography difficult? What differentiates a professional from an amateur?
In: Other
Hello. I am making a living as a professional photographer for several years now. The comparison of professional vs. amateur basically boils down to amount of information and practice you have backing up your claims of quality.
There are surface level distinctions, like skills in post-process editor of your choice, the fact you get paid for it, or basic knowledge of physics. But in the end, it is ultimately your knowledge of the craft that lends you the ability to take good pictures on demand, which in turn makes you the authority on the subject.
