Great words, thanks so much for your opinions.
I have to say though that i am no designer. I actually am working at an agency now doing retouching work. I have worked on images shot by some pretty big names in the photography world. It has been invaluable being a part of the process that makes the images work. Seeing the raw files from great photographers over and over really started thinking to myself, Shit I could do this.
Coming from this background, i do want to get into the commercial work that pays well because i have seen what some of these guys get paid. I know that sounds a bit daft but i want to make a good living. I will always have personal projects to satisfy myself and what i want to do.
I have always had a steady job and the thought of not having a steady income scares the crap out of me.
How do you go about making sure you dont have any big gaps in income?
Do you have a rep?
How much do you rely on your rep for work?
