How much of your time do you spend shooting for fun vs paid work?

100% fun and actively refuse any offers to do paid work.

First, I’m not good enough to be paid, I spray and pray and my best shots are accidents half the time.

Second, I’m just a tech nerd that enjoys playing around with fancy gadgets and photography is an excuse to do that. The effort that goes into proper paid shoots is way more than I’ll ever invest. I always shoot RAW+Jpeg but 95% of the time I just take the Jpegs straight from the camera and call it a day.

Photography is something I do to enhance my hobbies like traveling. I take photos while I’m doing things I enjoy rather than making the process of photography the main focus.
