How many of you have a Univeristy degree in photography? How many of you are self-taught?

I completely agree with you, HRM, but that’s unfortunately the common terminology/description.

I just think it is very inspiring that those who are interested in a field like this (myself included) are not required to have the photography degree to consider pursuing it. While those who have the degree certainly have a great head start, there is so much more to making this a successful venture than merely securing a degree.

That’s fantastic. I think it’s great that people see that a formal education in photography is not a requirement. If you love what you do and put the time & effort into it, no matter the background, someone can have an opportunity to do the same.

That’s great! I’m sure your degree gave you a great head start into the business.
