How much does a average photographer earn?

Answer 1

Income for a Photographer
The median expected salary for a typical Photographer in the United States is $47,442.

Here is more personal input:
I'm a photographer in Canada and cleared $120K last year. Keep in mind, I took over existing clientel of 15 years from my parents. Photography depends on your skill, attitude and experience.

Photo payment
Depends on a lot of things....is it a commercial shoot, such as you are doing a spread for Toyota's catalog, or a shoot for a magazine, or is it a wedding you are covering, or is it for someone wanting their first headshots done?
too many variables to answer accurately.
