Good job for 13 yr old?



I'm an absolute camera addict and I don't go anywhere without a camera.
I'm 13 years old and everyone tells me I'm an amazing photographer.
Is this a good job for me? (I live in California). I could take pictures for things and people, but I don't know if it's an entirely good job.
I know other jobs are mediocre like babysitting and stuff, but it's really boring and so I was wondering if photography was good since I'm great with a camera...
Let me know.

Right now, at your age, you probably dont have the resources to do photgraphy as a job.

You can keep practicing. Do things like pick a subject, shoot it centered in your frame, on the left and right of your frame, get up on a stepladder, to shoot down, again centering it, and going left and right, than gt as low to the ground as you can, shooting different views.

Keep an eye out for how these views change with the background, foreground, lighting, shadows, etc...

Play with your ISO, shutter speed, f-stops, take it all back to your coputer, and look at them. Find what works best, what works least, etc...

This will help you to develope an eye for photography in the future. Stick to it. It can be a great job, if your good at it, and good with people.
to legally work, you have to be at least 14 and thats still pushing it.. if there was someone older, they would probably take them first... wait till high school and they have laot to offer there with photograph there.. like places to hire you

good luck=]
If that is what you want to do then definitely pursue it and see where it takes you!
if you can find somebody that hires kids our age let me know cuz i could use a job too lol
well it sounds like ur talented so u should try to pursue a long-term career in that, but since your 13 i don't think u can be a professional photographer just yet
do what makes you happy what is the point in living a life that doesn't make you happy so go take picture and by you being happy doing that maybe you will bright up someone else day :)
I'd get a regular, typical, lame, minimum wage teenager's job, first (when you're of legal age for a job, I actually think it's 15 legally, but preferably to the manager's it would be 16.) Then, if you're serious about it, start looking into art colleges, take photography classes in school (if offered) and the like later on. I'm also assuming (no offense) that people won't hire a 13 year old.
