how many pros are here?

[sGu]

are you a pro? if so, which area of photography are you specialise in?

also, how did you turn pro? any formal training? or just shooting non-stop until one day someone contact you?

practice practice practice I suppose.

So far my Rebel has made me $30. I was out walking and a lady walking her dog wanted a few pictures. Well 10 photos later, I made $30, and a reference and possible contact to other people and events.

Maybe a little luck is required as well?

that's one way to go, but with all those EOS, freelance, wedding photography courses out there, anyone took it before they call themselves "pro"?
