I would like to preface this by saying that this is not a thread asking how I can make money or anything like that (I'm under no illusions that I will ever be able to even sell a print) but rather something I have been wondering for a while and thought it might be an interesting discussion. I do understand if people would rather not share this type of info, and there really is nothing behind me asking these questions, purely curiosity.
Does anyone on here make their living primarily from Landscape photography? Is this supplemented by other genres of photography work like weddings, events, product etc? Where does the actual income come from, do print publications 'buy' your work? Do you sell a lot of prints through your website? Do galleries pay to exhibit your work? Do you run courses/workshops?
I imagine it's a combination of all these things. Obviously there are people whose name is very well known, Joe Cornish et al, who are in a slightly different position, but perhaps not?
Sorry if this has been discussed before, just interested if any of the people on here who post consistently good stuff make a living from it.
