Hey, /p/, I'm getting back into photography after far too long of a break (years). But I'm contemplating something:

How difficult is it to stop doing free work for people you know?

This is more of a thought than a practice, for clarification. But you all know what I mean: The "You have a nice camera! you're invited to my kid's birthday party!" thing.

It would be very tempting for some friends and coworkers, sure -- especially if they're willing to allow use for your portfolio. But if you're going to make money on the side using photography, at what point do you stop doing favors and start demanding pay to show up?

Grow a pair and say no or move to another city

Hide your camera under your shirt and only pull it out when you want to take a picture, that way no one will know you have a camera

How cute: You like to toss out insult without even addressing the question at hand.

Do you feel better about yourself now? I hope so. Maybe one day you can move out of your mommy's basement. Perhaps after learning how to read context.

But then, you probably already believe you're intelligent enough to realize that the question isn't how to stop, but rather when, and the difficulties involved with being 'that person' who suddenly stop toting the nice camera to casual gatherings, and at what point to actually draw that line.

well your bitch ass personality really showed itself in that post. no wonder youre a literal doormat for your friends and, most probably, coworkers too.

protip: people with a backbone never had that problem.

i think you shouldnt "get back" to photography, its not for you.

Well, that escalated rapidly.

What the fuck OP?

Just say no when you don't feel like it, it's not that fucking hard.
