Commercial Photographer and Stress

Being a Commercial Photographer according to CNN's article is one of the jobs that is considered stressful and this is why...

Stressful jobs that pay badly

Median pay: $43,600
% who say their job is stressful: 100%

The job may sound glamorous, but commercial photographers, who capture models, merchandise and landscapes for books, advertisements and catalogs, have to contend with long days, picky personalities and demanding deadlines -- sometimes withstanding precarious positions just to get that perfect shot.

"One time I was doing a portrait of two guys who owned a construction company. The next thing I knew I was standing on this little catwalk under the Throgs Neck bridge [in New York City], dangling above the water because it gave me this great angle," said Gale Zucker, a photographer from Branford, Conn.

Learning how to drive


Some people might be surprised to find out that I don't know how to drive... not until last two weeks ago. I never really found the need to learn until this year when I realized that I really have to learn how to drive and buy a car of my own. First thing's first though... I have to get the skills and learn how to drive. Early this month I decided to get my Student Permit and enroll at Honda Kalookan Driving School. The lesson lasts for 10 hours but I decided to divide it into 5 sessions every Saturday during my off from work. I finished my 2nd session and I must say I really enjoy the freedom of being one with the car and I guess it comes also with maturity and the eagerness to learn. Hopefully I get my license before this year ends and I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hopefully I get to save enough money to buy my own car early next year.
