Hello!
Last year I obtained my DBA license in commercial photography which in Anchorage, Alaska falls under science and technical services. This is perfect because I am, professionally, focusing on small business shoots at the moment.
I am also interested, and a little hesitant (due to their cost) in starting a print website hosted on SmugMug. However, I do not want another business, as a commercial photography license is not in the same category as selling prints (this would be a fine art license).
My question: how many of you guys sell prints without a business license or have run into this issue? If I have two licenses can I run them under the same name? I will also be posting this on a local page as I know licensures are not the same across all states, but would appreciate input from whomever has some to give.
Please do not hesitate to ask clarifying questions as I know this may be unclear to some. Thanks for your time, I look forward to hearing from you.
