Is there such thing as Kitten Photographers?

Question

Basicly there's this website called kittenwar and its competitions on your photo of kittens.

So well , I was wondering is there such career as being a kitten photographer? Is it common , or would you have to be a photographer who only signs up for kittenwar or can u be a kitten photographer?

Also in college what courses would you take on?

You see - I admire kittens/cats and I admire photography , but only of kittens - so if there is such thing as a kitten photographer :D

Answer 1

Yes, there are people who specialize in this kind of photography but you need a solid customer base to make it.  It's always good to do general photography as well - that keeps the rent paid while you are waiting for a kitty client to come in.  College courses?  A good photo program is essential.

Answer 2

No! their paws just aren't dextrous enough to hold a camera - let alone press the shutter.
