		<description>Hahaha, Yeah &lt;b&gt;mangia&lt;/b&gt;, you're totally a professional! :P

&lt;b&gt;@quirkyalone&lt;/b&gt;:

Admittedly, I haven't worked as a photographer yet but even from my standpoint, working for hire looks like a bad arrangement. You're essentially hired help instead of a creative professional.

Photographers make most of their money from licensing their photos for different uses for different periods of time. If you work for hire, you can't license those photos because you don't own the copyright; the client does.

And if they pay you $100 and license it out to eight different places for a total of $5,000 then you've only got yourself to blame.

Working for hire is a bad arrangement that large companies will try to force on photographers or smaller companies will use to take advantage of new shooters.</description>

		<description>&#62;&#62; Most people don’t buy photos because they’re too expensive.

This is actually true. ;-) 

...joking aside, is working for hire that bad?!</description>
