Before anyone judges me, yes I am a dumb 19 year old who has watched too much Andrew Tate and all the other self improvement gurus talk about being rich. This has lead me down to a very confusing hole.
Anyhow, can you actually make Millions off a photography business? If so how?
I have 4 years of experience and now I am on the search for a photography job for the time being.
I for the most part have been using photography as a tool to make connections with wealthy people. I want to own nice cars, so what do I do? I go up to people who have them and ask for a photo shoot so that they have a reason to talk to me.
This genuinely can ever get me so far. But man its been confusing me for a while.
As I am still learning and I just started to do this connections thing I am wondering if anyone here has a similar problem to me? 😅
You can be a millionaire selling socks, the point is to build a brand. That’s the best advice imo you can take from these “influencers”. You watch them for their brand (which is essentially cars and women).
Its the same when it comes to Photography. 1st work, 2nd build a brand. Build a portfolio, work for free if you have to. Then you have a brand you can offer. Then the money starts flowing.
Also its better to do multiple things, for example try editing stuff on Fiverr, maybe learn Graphic Designing, incorporate it into your photography and sell it.
Lots of opportunities.
Now stop thinking and start doing. Good Luck.
