I have been involved in photography on and off for the past few years. I started off with nature photography because I love the outdoors but its never been really fulfilling for me if that makes sense.
I am "attracted" to people and can typically find something intersting about them right of the bat. The first thing I am normally look at is their eyes. You can read a personal pretty well by what stories their eyes tell you therefore I believe that should be the focused feature of a portrait.
My questions relate to those who do portrait photography as a means to generate income:
Do you do it because you love it or is it for the money?
Has doing it for money affected your love for it?
I know often when you mix something you love with making money it has a negative affect. That is why I am curious to hear your responses.
Thanks!
