Careers in Photography
Lean to Specialization
By Alexander J. Wedderburn
cvruiot OF Photography
I The Smithsonian institution

Photography, aside from
being big business in its own
right. is firmly established as
q vital part of all branches of
science. industry, commerce
and education.
It has become one of the
honored professions and thou
sands of new jobs are becom-
ing available every year for
those who decide to take up
photography ASA pleasant and
lucrative way to make a living.
But the profession is becom-
ing more specialized with each
passing day. The time is past
when any one with a camera
could stumble into business
and become successful. To-
day, the photographer who
would take on any job on a
hit-or-miSs basis is we'll on the
way out.
B.S. and B. A. Degrees Given
There are well-established
schools where, in addition to
basic principles. the photogra-
pher of the future can become
a specialist. More important,
a growing number of colleges
and universities are providing
major courses in photography
leading to B. S. and B. A. de-
grees.
There's a good reason for all
this. Photography has become
such an important tool of the
research scientist that highly
qualified men and women are
vital to scientific and indus
trial growth. So, if you are
looking for a well-paid and
progressive future, take a
searching look at photography
it has a healthy outlook for
the years that lie ahead.
Types Of Specialization
Now for a look at some of
the more attractive specializa-
tons. Perhaps photo journal
ism has the greatest appeal
to many of us. The news
photographer seldom has a
dull moment. He is there
when news and history are
being made and his mission
is to make a pictorial record.
There is a great deal of salts
faction in being a news cam
eraman, as well a a great
deal of hard work. You are
there at Notwithstanding events
as well as a spectator of life'S
tragedies and lighter moments.
The photo Journalist is well
paid and is provided excellent
equipment both in and out of
the darkroom. Weighed against
this are the sometimes irregu-
lar hours; but. on the whole,
1t is a very eventful and salts
flying way of life.
Portrait photography is an
other familiar phase of the
art. To be successful here
you must like people and be
q good mixer. The key to sue
cess in portraiture is the abil-
ity to elicit spontaneous and
pleasingly natural expressions
from the people. If you lack
this quality you will be better
of in some other branch of
the profession where technical
