How is Daniel not amongst the most popular photographers on CZcams? His experience is probably second to few and his honest candidness about a profession he clearly knows so much about having lived it with such intensity is something that those aspiring to pay the rent this way need to at least give him some air time. Incredible photographer ...
True, We’re getting him out to the world and he’s growing all the time.
No fancy gear reviews. 😉
I will say it again Marc, I love when you bring Dan on. He's the kind of guy that I can listen to all day and I would love to sit down with. I'm not a professional photographer, but his words of wisdom and the way he approaches photography is inspiring.
fantastic, he's on again this week!
Part of the advantage of working in editorial is access to subjects through assignments.
Professional here... 24 years full time... and yes in my early 50s, and have controlled my own content for 20 of 24 years. A great chat you guys had. Love it. Being truthful in the photography business is so needed. Bravo.
Thanks so much and join us again!
Thank you for the thoughtful comments and the absence of gear talk. I am grateful for my day job and love my self centered photographic meditation. But I do enjoy listening to Milnor be real. I was once a freelance writer and hated selling myself.
You are so welcome!
Thanks again Dan and Marc....
Always love listening to Daniel, always willing to give out knowledge you couldn't buy. Thankyou
Great to hear!
I am not a professional photographer, I do it as a hobby and as an additional job. Sometimes a few photos are enough to choose one that is good, in my opinion, not remarkable and overwhelming, just the best one. I agree that less is better, maybe not always but... less quantitatively, or what is in the frame, I still have a problem with the latter.
You can’t fumble your way to great photography.
To AYP Mark: You have great content and love Milnor as well. However, I’m a hard of hearing, please have option for google subtitles turn on.
Today a professional photographer has to do much more than take photos and sell them. You have to work hard, practice food photography, practice cool and fashion portraits, practice fitness photos, do workshops, do conferences, write blogs. You may not have a contract for one thing but maybe another. The Stocks mode has weakened the market and many other photographers for not losing the shooting work practically free. I aspire to earn a living by being a professional and I know that the road is long and hard but it is better than being an employee of others and living on salaries that do not give much. I may be a delusional optimist but I have no other way. Thanks for sharing, very interesting.
Good stuff Marc. Loved Daniel's real world take on this topic.
Glad you enjoyed it
I think this is a good video for many of us passionate photographers.
I am a serious amateur, a university-trained journalist who works outside of professional journalism. And like Dan said, this is where I have found the most joy and fulfillment. I only document the things that I am drawn to, and I get to do this without the stress of taking work just to pay the next rent bill.
wow thank you sooooo much for this sir. Appreciate a lotttttttt
👍
Great sharing! Have a good one,
Peace
You too!
I've never seen anything from your work, and I don't need see anything either to call you an artist.
The way you behave is enough.
God bless you.
🙏
Thanks for the great video! Do you have any videos about choosing the right focal lengths? I find it to be a little stressful 😅
Not yet! but we could, stay tuned.
Dan the Man. 👍🏻
Hello. I like your videos.
Hey, thanks
Hello Mark, I have tried to login to Daniel’s website but it did not work giving :We couldn't find the web page you requested!
Which website are you looking for?

A professional photographer is the one who has better clients. A non professional photographer is the one who has better photographs. The choice is yours.
Interesting logic
I think you need to be able to make a leaving out of photography, otherwise you’re not regardless of the quality
Neither van Gogh nor Cézanne made a living of their painting, the former partially due to misjudgement the latter because of wealth.
The majority of "professional" photographers make their living of wedding photography...
