But how many casual acquaintances know that photography is a craft and business that I am pursuing?

Photographerlife. Or not.
So, I'm a photographer. A pro, a professional. Someone who gets paid for their work. (Often the only difference between a pro and and none pro is Public Liability insurance and a tax return. Having that 'Pro' status doesn't make anyone better than anyone else. I'm under no illusion! )

In the timeworn trial of digital vs. analog, let's finally have that (tiny) piece of cake and eat it too: film photographers are not only actively embedding their work on Instagram, blogs, and other online platforms, they are also quite generously sharing their process and educating fellow amateur photographers on youtube.

Ghostly Girl. Second Place in Cursed Images Challenge.
I’ve always been passionate about photography. Especially black and white darkroom photography. There’s something intriguing about the way film catches a moment in time, and then everything keeps moving. Photography wasn’t always so readily available.

Ghost Photo Shoot: The Greatest Fall Trend Yet.
If you don't love fall, Halloween, or both, I am guessing you're dead inside and we would never be friends, so you can actually get lost. Unless you enjoy reading articles written by people that don't like you... which I sort of respect in a weird way, so I guess you can stay. You don't need my approval. You go, girl*
