How do photographers get paid?
A lot depends on what kind of work you are doing and who is paying you. If you work for an agency then you are a vendor, probably a 1099, contractor and you invoices will be paid by check or ideally electronic transfer.If you are being paid through a stock agency or onine gallery service they all require some sort of electronic payment method. This is where a paypal account comes in really handy. The places that do offer a paper check option usually charge serious processing fees and make you wait a long time to get paid,If you are working directly with individuals, such as for weddings, headshot and so forth, its a good idea to offer as many payment options as possible. Paypal offers a credit card scanner that works with their phone/tablet App that makes it super easy to take credit/debit cards. I encourage everyone to set up such an account, It makes you look a lot more professional to your clients and the more paynebt options you have the better.

How much do photographers make?
Many photographers don't earn their primary living from it- there are lots of expenses; especially with digital, where you have to replace your cameras every few years. Studio space, make-up artists, lighting and other equipment, software etc. Don't forget that models don't generally work for free, so until you're established and have clients, you'll be spending money to build your portfolio. Even on TFCD shoots, you'll have expenses. For each lucky papparazzi that sold a photo to some celebrity magazine for $50k, there are literally thousands who made nothing, but spent the same amount of time camped out and driving around following celebs, looking for that one shot of Britney or Angelina's new baby. Sure there's money in weddings, but it's a tough business.
