    Nice assessment Matt. I started out as a newspaper photographer in 1979 and loved it for several years. After a while the job became 'more of the same' and it squashed my creativity and love of photography. I stopped taking photos full time and moved into management went about 10 years without picking up a camera. It was only when my kids were born I started up again. Making your hobby your job can certainly kill your hobby. I think the youtube model is a better option as you do what you want and not what you're forced to do.

    Matt, you do great work with your vids and outstanding portrait work! You really are an artist that understands the gear you are using. As a 'UA-camr your channel is kind of 'niche channel focusing on Leica stuff which is not as popular as Nikon,Canon,Fuji/etc. but to me more its interesting. I have learned so much about Leica cameras and M type lens that a few month ago I knew nothing about! Sounds like you picked that right path to mix photography with enjoyable life style along with meeting those fantastic models! If I was a pro photographer and had to do weddings every weekend I would go back to my day job. Keep up the good work as there is no channel like yours on UA-cam.

    Bravo Matt, a great consistent story about how to make a living as the "new"kind of Photographer.
    I think you are supporting and advising a lot of people who are on the edge of going pro like yourself.
    IMO you hit all the resources where starters can make some money to assure a stable income to cover the "standard"costs of living.
    Well done, man, and sun on your path to the future. 🌞

    It's awesome to see how much photography has changed! I would've been more inclined to choose a career in photography if all these options were open to me 45 years ago. Regardless of my passion for photography I knew I would've never been able to make a living with it had I needed to only made money based on producing images based on someone else's needs. I have nothing but admiration for those that made a living in this art. Just happy with the photographs I've taken in my life and the flexibility I've had never having been pigeonholed into just one genre.

    Fascinating topic. There used to be an old joke that during the tourist off-season the residents of the Isle of Man eked out a living by taking in each other's washing. It was a joke because mainstream economists said it was clearly impossible actually to make a living that way. And yet, here we are... supposing for the sake of demonstration there were only two photographers in the world. Each of them spends half his/her "working hours" taking photos for fun and making videos about it, and the other half watching the other photographer's videos. As long as there are advertisers who want photographers to see their ads, UA-cam will pay BOTH of them to do that! It seems like taking in each other's washing, yet it does seem to work, at least for some people. What a time to be alive, as the Two Minute Papers guy says...

    My take on this is that if you are a UA-cam photographer the monotony of making , editing, uploading content is just as tedious as doing endless weddings. Very few UA-camrs are actually good photographers, present company excepted. They talk well but very few have an eye for it. Just MHO of course
    I’ve been doing weddings for 20 years now and you can get great inspiration from the greats. I recently picked up a book by Jane Bown and saw the best cake cutting shot I’ve ever seen and it was taken in 1957, so there is always inspiration out there you don’t have to shoot template weddings

    • @MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom
      @MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom  Рік тому

      Thanks David! Sorry I was not trying to bash wedding shooters. I love them but when I get a backlog to edit that's about the only time it feels like work. The couples and venues make them fun and I enjoy the problem solving aspect. As you can see i'm still trying to learn how to speak so i'm a photographer not a "proper UA-camr" but again I enjoy the steep learning curve of trying to improve with each video (not usually noticeable haha). As I use a lot of different kit it keeps it interesting as lots of things to make videos on. Thansk for the book tip. If I start doing weddings more frequently I will have to check it out.

    • @Dpul945
      @Dpul945 Рік тому

      @@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom Oh I didnt think you were bashing wedding photographers, I was. The standard of wedding photography is at an all time low and unfortunately most have never heard of any of the "greats" so just plod along producing the same old same old. I have to say its the same for UA-camr photographers in the main. Its easy to read a spec sheet and then tell me whats good and not in their opinion, but as soon as I see one of their images I either stay or leave. Most IMVHO have no idea what a good image is. I subscribe to your feed because its very valuable as I start to be a Leica only shooter both personal and professionally, plus you take good images that I respect . Keep it up.

    I see another split in recent trends. Gear promoters and gear lovers, and Art of photography lovers fascinated by light itself. Unfortunately, first group prevails. I will rather shoot as hobby photographer with my passion for light, rather than end up in first category. But we all make our choices.

    Great points Matt cheers. Back in pre-digitl days I shot weddings, these days I shoot for a newspaper and for personal projects, so I have a regular photography based income, I do have passive income via other means, but have just yesterday monetised my wee channel, I don't expect much from it, but it will build with luck and work. One thing though when I'm dead and gone where does any passive YT income go, can I nominate a beneficiary? Cheers Paul

      Hi Paul, great to hear your situation. YT is a long game but eventually it works if you keep at it (and have the time for it*). Really cool point on the income after we've gone. It keeps pumping out money to that email address account so as long as someone has access to it they can get it (Basically like someone paying £100 into a passed relatives bank account every month, if a relative has access they can access it).
