Can you get somewhere in life with photography as a career and make good money?

I am curious because I am barely entering college and very interested in learning photography. I am taking a beginner’s photography class and i want to make a career out of it. Do photographers make a lot? Also please tell me what i should expect in my class please. Any life lesson and college tips? Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks

I am currently in college and my major lets me have the joy of taking photography classes and I have taken a few in High School. I currently am an amateur and what I suggest because I am going to try to do this is help out a professional photographer with some of there work.

Even having taking classes the experience you get helping a professional will be just as valuable if not more valuable. I recommend these few classes if not already required in college, Photoshop Classes and Film Photography with dark room and Photographic Lighting.

As far as how much they make, that depends on, what area of photography (Wedding, Portrait, Journalism, Landscapes, Merchandising, etc) and whether you are part of a company or do your own work with your own business.

I so highly endorse working under a professional in the field that is what I am looking to do while in college.

Unions for Beginners (Paperback) $23.76 It is a time when unions have returned to the front pages of newspapers and blogs and demonstrators are in the streets of America every day. It is a time when the right wing has tried to strike the final blow against what remains of the right to collective bargaining. It is a time when millions of members of the middle class are falling through the cracks in a downward economic trend that parallels the decline of unions. It is this time when people are turning again to the history of unions. Unions For Beginners provides an introduction to that essential history. Written and profusely illustrated in the user-friendly, accessible style of the For Beginners series, Unions For Beginners lays down a simple presentation of the colorful epic story of the struggle of working people to rise from lives dominated by toil and underpaid work to becoming full-fledged participants in the American dream they helped to build. Unions For Beginners presents the history of unions and the labor movement, the principles underlying union organizing, the decline of unions in the shadow of the rising corporate state, and the resurgence in the 21st century of union activism.
