I've done countless weddings, ever since I was in my first year of university, as well as wedding editing. Recently I've started working online, I'm doing paid retouching work and even though I'm studying for an MfA I haven't sold a print, yet. Truth be told, the Eastern part of Europe doesn't offer that much exposure to young artists and that may well be on of the reasons. I've never earned money from photographing friends/ acquaintances because it's really hard to find models anyway so it's win-win in my oppinion, especially because I shoot for personal projects. I believe I manage to set aside my personal work and my work for university from the work that I do for commercial purposes and that gives me confidence that, indeed, it is possible do both.
