How To Become A Freelance Photographer In 2024 | Interview

What if you could make more than most doctors for just pushing a button?

No I'm not talking about what I do, hitting buttons on my keyboard - I'm talking about being a photographer.

For my first interview on this channel I've invited freelance photojournalist Christian Grattan.

Christian has taken pictures for Vogue, Hennessy, Hamptons, The New York Post and more.

The self-proclaimed "Bat Mitzvah King" now exclusively shoots bat mitzvahs and works less than 12 times a year.

Yet . . . he comfortably makes a 6 - figure income in a career most people could only dream of pursuing.

To show exactly how he did it and give you your own roadmap to a 6 figure career as a freelance photographer - tune into the interview.
