    I am 51 …..I am signed. up for scuba training in the Pittsburgh area….I am interested in the field of photography …I do find big sharks beautiful. What is the realistic pay for this profession. I currently work in Cleveland Clifffs steel mill…. It would be much more meaningful to be in the ocean exploring our world beneath us

    • @WetSouls
      @WetSouls  2 года назад

      Hello Brent, nice you stopped by. I agree, exploring the world beneath is great - for me it always puts the world above into complete context. Answering your question about "realistic" pay as a professional photographer is not that straight forward: The road of becoming a professional, full time underwater photographer that gets paid to do his / her work is very arduous. There is few out there who only work as photographers all the time and mostly work is on a project to project basis, competition is also fierce and pay - unless you belong to the top 3% - is almost non existent. If you are looking to start out the best way is to improve your scuba skill and buy an entry level camera and start using that. Open an Instagram page and publish you pictures, follow other photographers and see where the journey take you. Hope this helps. Plenty of great snaps to You and safe diving at all time!

      @@ms11photographey I see. To become an underwater photographer you should be able to scuba dive or freedive. Have you ever tried / are you a certified diver? If you are certified and want to learn underwater photography the best way is to get a camera with an underwater housing and begin with easy subjects. Practice and learn the trait. There are also courses to learn the basics such as PADI or SSI courses. Then take it from there. As Martin suggests, for example, start with turtles. Hope this helps :)
