  2. Introduction • “What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.” ― Karl Lagerfeld • I started liking photography when I went to England and I took a really good picture of a penguin. • I would specifically want to do wildlife photography where you take pictures of animals, wildlife, and nature. • Wildlife photographers research history, geography, and customs to get the job.

  3. Nature Of Work • Five responsibilities of wildlife photographers are: • 1. They are given a story by an editor and take a picture to go with it. • 2. They will travel to different locations, take photos, and then research ideas. • 3. They can lead photography workshops if they work for more than one client. • 4. They search for new assignments and write grant applications. • 5. After you take the pictures you can edit your own work and make it beautiful!

  4. Working Conditions • This job is mostly physical since you have to physically take the pictures. • You would be outside taking pictures of animals, landscapes, or nature. • The environment would be pretty much where ever you are. • Wildlife photographers will be outdoors for long periods of time. You should be okay with camping and hiking. A wildlife photographer could be waiting hours, days, or even months to get the right shot.

  5. Training, Qualifications, & Advancement • A requirement you need is to go to a photography school. • A two or four year degree in photography should be enough to learn basic and advanced techniques. • A degree in zoology with a minor in photography is a good place to start to know about the animals you take pictures of.

  6. Job Outlook/Employment • I would want to work for a magazine so they could give me an assignment and I would travel to get the pictures. • I would want to work somewhere warm or tropical.

  7. Earnings • Salary goes for the least amount of $15,000 to the most of $50,000 a year. • A really good photographer can earn over 60,000 a year.

  8. Related Occupation • A back up career would be a bartender. They have a good employment outlook and its easy to get a job as one because you learn on the job. You need to know the recipes of the drink and how to mix them fast and efficiently. They make $8-$10 an hour. My mom used to be a bartender so I can take some tips and it just seems fun and I get to talk to people everyday.

  9. Summary • I look forward to going to new places and taking pictures of the pretty animals and pretty scenery. This is probably the number one reason I wanted to do this job in the first place. I don’t look forward to having to write essays and other papers for my job. I don’t really like writing long papers but I will do it for my job! I don’t know if I will learn much from this job but I could learn about the places I visit and have a lot of fun!
