This week I found an article about a sports photographer and his competition with mothers that get their hands on nice DSLR cameras. It was interesting to see how much people pay someone to come to a football game and take pictures of their children. The guy in the article made a career out of high school parents wanting him to come shoot their child in action.
But the article was focused on how there are many people getting into photography and just giving their shots away so you have to find ways to compete. He has an interesting business venture. At the football games he takes the shots and then sets up a trailer where parents can come in and choose pictures that they'd like to purchase on the spot.
In the end when you are competing with soccer mom's and cameras it's all about the creativity and budget crunching you can do to get your product on the top.
