[QUOTE="theregsy, post: 16799, member: 4398"] That has to be one of the best answers that I've ever read, I have thought that the old line of "if its your main income earner" was a little too easy, we all know people that have a very good day job but are in demand as photographers becasue of their skill and in some cases work ethic. I get a lot of work, I am asked to gigs, festivals and events all the time to take photos, all of these events are either run for charity or by a band that has no spare money (I am talking about the local music scene, not chasing Pearl Jam or The Rolling Stones here :) ) I almost never get paid, but free access or a couple of pints is very nice when you know that they have no cash. Am I the first professional charitable photographer??? [/QUOTE]
