I have over 100 camera straps hanging in 3 groups in my camera room. My go to strap is a handmade leather strap with my name on it, very well built and ultra comfortable and one other favorite is made from a 1967 Mercedes Benz SL250 upholstery from GUTAR Straps inc. both given to me by my Daughter and Son-in-law. They knew how much I loved my old SL250 and it matches my upholstery

There is a Question at the end of this story if ya wanna skip the crap part!!

.... So, in the early 1970s, I started working at a Professional Commercial Photo Studio. I was not one of the Photographers there as I was hired into the Color Lab Darkroom processing color/slide film and printing and processing color photographs. I would work with some of the photographers in various shoots once in a while if they asked and needed help.
~ A few months before I took this job, I had several paying gigs - music groups, portraits, weddings, etc., that all paid for my services. That work outside of that studio (and another Commercial studio, after the first one) continued until 2004 when I retired from our (The Wife and my...) Wedding Photo Business. All during that time, I considered myself and later my wife as Professional Photographers, as we were paid for our services. Now, I still get paid occasionally doing a wedding or portraits for friends or whomever, but not as a business.

The Question is...... Is being a Pro Photographer getting paid, and if you no longer are freelancing or a hired pro - is a person at that point, now an Amateur again?

For me just -21deg when we surfaced at the North Pole on one of the Submarines I served on. You would think it would be much colder than that but for the few days we were there it never got any colder. It did feel cold.

Different times, different generation, different interests.

The creative aspects of photography had already changed many times by the time digital came along.


Linda I totally agree with you, not that long ago the same subject came up with the introduction of digital that the “photographer creatively is on the decline because having unlimited shots now they just spray and pray for a good shot”. There will always be the dedicated professional photographer and as the ease of capturing a memory there will be more people taking snapshots
