    To clarify, all of the yearly totals are after all of my expenses, and before my taxes, much like any salary-paying job describes the amount to be paid.

  2. Eccentric Smithy says

    SUBBED!!! I'm just Starting out photography, and I love it. But didn't use to think wedding photography was for me until I got invited to a good friends wedding in the summer, which got me thinking; I should take my camera and talk to the wedding photographer that's going to be there. In the mean time, I did a search just to see what wedding photography really has to offer, and found this. Your video is really inspiring, especially the bit toward the end about people and stories. I work with families so I'm all about that! much love bro 🙏🏽
