I have written several posts in the past talking about business practices to make it.

Today I want to address what I have noticed is the difference between those who are successful and those who fail.

What kind of a Dreamer are you?

There are typically two types of photographers—some dream about having the experience of enjoying the perks of being a photographer.

I know many people are fascinated by who I have met as a photographer.

Many people want the experience of seeing the world. Whatever they dream about is more about the experience of being a photographer that occupies their dreams.

The other type of photographer dreams as well. They are thinking about their clients and prospects. They are thinking of how their photography can help them.

I often find myself thinking through assignments and what I will need to help take the end product up a notch. I am thinking about questions I need to ask to understand the expectations of clients and prospects better.

If you dream about how fun it would be to have a career, then don’t pursue this as a career; keep it as a hobby.

However, if you are thinking of how to problem solve for people to use your skills to improve their lives–you might make it.
