Some shots from Hawaii. (8 shots)

58. We were lucky

truly, and hubby has been doing it for 30+ years. These days the best paying field is actually the one neither him or I want to ever do, wedding (and other social event) photography. That my niece does that, and literally works for a photographer in Cleveland (I personally do not like their work, like too much photoshop).

What I would do is get a portfolio together and see if a local nature magazine wants to take your work as a freelancer and start building a professional portfolio. Do not discount ether architectural work, some of the top property sellers will hire a photographer to make a property look best.

Now going back to what we do, truly photo journalism is no longer paying since we have been replaced by Iphones and at least American stations are very cheap and take whatever locals send them. They encourage that. It will not stop until a few people get hurt\killed and lawsuits fly

Oh and I forgot, you could write a travel article from that trip to Hawaii, and use the photos. There are several travel magazines that might jump, but it is a very competitive field.
