Paid camera work
Professional photography is the practice of taking photographs for payment rather than as a hobby.
It encompasses specializations like portrait, wedding, commercial, fashion, and photojournalism, each with distinct technical demands and client expectations.
The term distinguishes paid practitioners from amateurs, though the line has blurred as high-quality cameras become widely accessible.
