Abstract

I first wrote an article with this title approximately five years ago for a mainstream printed photography magazine that I edited. At the time, it seemed like a risk, a risk to write and publish a truthful and honest reflection on the emotional, mental and spiritual realities faced by many photographers within a title supported by camera manufacturer advertising. The article proved to be the most commented on and responded to feature that the magazine published in my three years as editor. It provoked letters from photographers thanking us for raising the issue and one in particular which is now available to read here https://unitednationsofphotography.com/2016/01/22/im-a-photographer-and-i-have-a-problem has in itself provoked a similar level of interest and response.
