New technologies and the growth of internet are some of the reasons why photography business is expanding. Another reason is because of the trend in fashion as well as increase in style awareness which makes photography a popular profession. In this business, you have an option if you want to work as a freelance photographer or have it as a fulltime job. One advantage of having photography as a profession is the hours of work. Also you can work at the same time have a vacation. Take pictures while you are on vacation and you might not be aware that those photos that you took will sell as soon as you upload it.

This is pure spam. Judging from the 'sig violation' on every single post my assumption is that this person (or bot?) is trying to sell some sort of photography school to the forum. As in, "Go to school for 3 months then immediately make a billion dollars a year as a professional photographer!!! Trust us!" Thanks to Sime for keeping an eye on this.

I figured as much...I was just kind of airing my annoyance with it. Also maybe saving a few people from themselves if they somehow were able to find the snake oil that this person is selling.
