Everyone on here is capable of taking great photos, and as long as you can create technically sound photographs you can go from there with creativity. I think it\'s a great idea if you can create your own little style or niche but with SO many other photographers these days, that is becoming much harder to do.
Here is a strange analogy : I have a friend that like to play poker (texas hold\'em). About ten years ago, live poker was about all you could find at casinos. He was a solid player and knew the game pretty well. Then came online poker. He started to play that and he kept telling me how he had never seen so many bad beats or how got rivered by an weak hand...blah...blah...blah. ANYWAYS, I told him that when you play online you see about 6 times the amount of hands than you would see in live poker. So of course all of those possible \"bad beats\" are gonna happen more often because of sheer volume. Make sense?
A photographer should feel proud of his or her work, and I think most on here do. But there will always be a few who are just doing this as a \"job\". In the end, isn\'t the fact that your client is happy the most important thing anyway?
