Today a photographer is not only responsible for photography equipment, but most of us own printers, scanners, and many other tools of the trade. We need to be marketers, promoters, and navigate through social media. We are required to wear many hats and be capable of many tasks, and still have a creative voice, and find stillness in the chaos to make work.

Something is wrong with this template. In addition, this enormous expense put onto the photographer narrows our community, narrows who can participate. I don’t have the answers, but it’s time we figure it out. Otherwise, we won’t be able to afford our own success.
