But my accountant has told me that I need to start writing off my gear only against income directly related to photography. So I am scrambling to get more direct sales to justify the write-off. So this year I keep 2 sales records. One for woodwork and one for photo sales. You do not want to run afoul of the IRS. On the other hand accelerated equipment write-offs can allow you to deduct the cost of some equipment in a single year but you must have income to write it off against. Some latitude is given for new start-ups but you need a good accountant to sort it all out.</p></blockquote><p></p>
