A baby photographer specializes in taking pictures of babies and newborn infants. This is typically done in a studio but can also be done in homes and other locations/events. Lots of props are needed, as is the ability to get the best baby expressions (not an easy task, but can be fun).

Good equipment is a must have as well. Getting hands-on experience (even if it includes babies plus other types of subjects). How Much They Make A lot depends on whether you have your own studio, work for someone else or are a freelancer. If you work in a chain photography business, you will likely make somewhere between $9-$12 per hour. If you have your own business, $4,000 per month is about average. If you get lots of projects, you could potentially make much more.

From Mcdonalds Fry-Cook to Hooters Waitress, Here Are the Unglamorous First Jobs of 24 Highly Successful People
From Mcdonald's Fry-Cook to Hooters Waitress, Here Are the Unglamorous First Jobs of 24 Highly Successful People It can be easy to see the worldâs most powerful and influential people as occupying a sphere far removed from the rest us. But many of the most successful people started off working odd jobs to earn money. These 24 highly successful people prove that the path to success doesnât have to be linear. Jeff Bezos worked the grill at McDonaldâs Ted Soquiâ"Corbis via Getty Images The founder and CEO of internet-retail behemoth Amazon got his start working the grill at McDonaldâs during his summers as a teenager, according to the book âGolden Opportunity: Remarkable Careers That Began at McDonaldâs.â âThe most challenging thing was keeping everything going at the right pace during a rush,â Bezos said. âThe manager at my McDonaldâs was excellent. He had a lot of teenagers working for him, and he kept us focused even while we had fun.â President Donald Trump collected bottles The Washington Postâ"The Washington Post/Getty Images The leader of the US grew up wealthy, but his father wanted him to learn the value of money early on. As a kid, his dad would take him to construction sites and have him and his brother pick up empty soda bottles to redeem for cash, Trump tells Forbes. He says that he didnât make much, but it taught him to work for his money. President Barack Obama scooped ice cream SAUL LOEBâ"AFP/Getty Images As a teenager growing up in Honolulu, Obama got his first gig working the counter at Baskin-Robbins, Time reports. Doug McMillon worked at a Walmart distribution center As Business Insider previously reported, Walmartâs current CEO joined the company as an hourly summer associate in a Walmart distribution center when he was 18, in 1984. He left the company to pursue a college degree, but in 1990, while pursuing his MBA, McMillon rejoined Walmartâs ranks as an assistant manager in a Walmart store before moving to merchandising as a buyer trainee, according to Walmart. He worked his way up the ranks to various senior leadership roles and took over as CEO in 2014. Robert Herjavec was a debt collector Eric McCandlessâ"ABC via Getty Images After graduating from the University of Toronto in 1984, and long before he became a celebrity investor through âShark Tank,â Herjavec took the first job he could find as the guy calling people to pay their bills. âIf youâre thinking that being a bad-debt collector was not the best way to launch a business career, youâre wrong,â Herjavec writes in his book âYou Donât Have to Be a Shark.â âI learned a lot from the job, and some lessons â" valuable lessons â" stay with me today.â Among those lessons, he says he learned that great salespeople focus energy only on serious prospects, and that empathy is often more effective than aggression when it comes to making a sale. Mark Cuban sold garbage bags Justin Sullivanâ"Getty Images When the Dallas Mavericks owner and entrepreneur asked his dad if he could get a new pair of expensive sneakers, his dad told him he could go get a job. Cuban was 12 at the time, and he asked his dad how he was supposed to find a gig. Thatâs when one of his dadâs friends stepped in. He said he had some garbage bags he needed to sell, so Cuban went door-to-door selling the bags for $3 more than he paid for them. Lloyd Blankfein sold snacks at Yankee Stadium Joe Raedleâ"Getty Images As the CEO of Goldman Sachs, Blankfein is one of the most influential people on Wall Street. But he worked his way up from the bottom. According to his biography, âMoney and Power: How Goldman Sachs Came to Rule the World,â Blankfein grew up in Brooklyn housing projects and worked his first job as a concession vendor at Yankee Stadium. Richard Branson was an amateur bird breeder and arborist Paul Harrisâ"Getty Images Branson, the billionaire founder of the Virgin Group, has worked for himself from day one. At the age of 11, Branson says in a LinkedIn post, he and his best friend, Nik Powell, started breeding parakeets to sell as pets to their classmates. The birds started multiplying faster than they could sell them, so they then tried their hand in a different market. As Christmas approached, they bought small fir trees and hoped to make a profit off them once they grew big â" but rabbits destroyed the trees before they could grow, he writes. Beth Comstock worked in a Rubbermaid factory Ilya S. Savenokâ"Getty Images General Electricâs first female vice chair oversaw the creation of the Hulu streaming service. But before she entered the professional world, she learned the value of hard work at a Rubbermaid factory that produced kitchenware. In a LinkedIn post, she explains that she took the summer job after her freshman year of college as a break from academic work but found herself completely overwhelmed. Sheâs still proud of learning how to work as a team to overcome the difficult months of labor. Neil Vogel sold tuxedos in a Philadelphia mall Roy Rochlinâ"Getty Images for Advertising Week New York The Dotdash (formerly About.com) CEO previously told Business Insiderthat his first real job was renting tuxedos to kids going to prom and to wedding parties. âBecause of the commission plan, which paid no commission on basic rentals, but instead paid $10 or so every time you rented a tux with tails or a terrible vest-suspenders combo, all of our effort was spent trying to rent people the most ridiculous thing possible,â he said, admitting that he and a buddy made side bets (the stakes were lunch in the food court) based on who could rent that dayâs pre-determined awful item first. âWorking retail is full of great lessons in how to deal with people, and of course sales skills are invaluable,â Vogel said. âHowever, given the surprising amount of money we made, perhaps the most important thing I learned is to be skeptical of those paid commissions to sell you something.â Pope Francis bounced for a nightclub Pacific Pressâ"LightRocket via Getty Images Before Jorge Mario Bergoglio joined the Jesuits as a priest, became the Archbishop of Buenos Aires and then Cardinal, and eventually won the papal crown â" thereby becoming Pope Francis â" he held a number of unglamorous jobs.

5 Media Jobs That Didnt Exist 5 Years Ago - Work It Daily
5 Media Jobs That Didnât Exist 5 Years Ago - Work It Daily The rapid pace of innovation has altered the career landscape, rendering some jobs nearly obsolete and creating entirely new media jobs that didn't exist a few years ago. This is especially true in the field of media, which has expanded from print, radio and television to encompass a new range of digital formats. New media professionals use the Internet to deliver information and entertainment in entirely new ways. Although the technology may be new, a combination of old-fashioned creativity, dedication, and hard work still pave the route to success. Here are five media jobs that didn't exist five years ago. SEO Strategist Although Search Engine Optimization (SEO) has been around for most of the past decade, it has become increasingly important to modern day companies. SEO refers to techniques that maximize a website's search engine ranking and, ideally, place it on the first page of search results. With search engines like Google continually tweaking their ranking algorithm, technical expertise and creativity are required to develop content that regularly lands websites at the top of search engine results. Many SEO strategists are paid high consultant fees to increase clients' web traffic and revenue stream. Working in SEO requires both marketing and technical skills, as well as a deep understanding of search engine workings and web user interaction. Social Media Manager Social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn have experienced an explosion in popularity in the past five years. Companies and individuals who want to leverage social media work with social media managers to create an online brand identity. Unlike traditional marketing, social media involves two-way communication between companies and potential customers. Social media tools are used to foster customer awareness, increase website traffic and create favorable buzz. Social Media Managers differ from Community Managers in the sense that their role is brand new in the past five years. Community Managers have been around on forums and blogs for the past 15-20 years. However even the role of community manager has exploded in the past 5 years with the advent of community spilling out onto social platforms. The roles are different but equally as important. Blogger What began as online journaling has become a new form of journalism. Professional bloggers create posts that may be informational, editorial or commercial. Blog posts are often part of an SEO strategy designed to attract visitors to a website and help establish an online brand or identity. Theyâre key to community management strategies as well to retain customers keep them talking engaged. They are also used by websites to help generate revenue from advertising. Even though traditional jobs in print journalism are dwindling, the opportunities for bloggers are growing at a rapid pace. App Designer The proliferation of smart phones and tablets has led to an increasing demand for well-designed apps. App designers help decide what an app will do, how it will look and how users interact with it. Companies are discovering that a custom-designed app can be a powerful marketing tool. There is also a market for apps that perform a unique function. Many designers have become overnight successes thanks to an original app that is downloaded by multitudes of users. Content Developer Web content developers research and write content for publication on websites. They also add graphics, video and sound to websites. The skills used by content developers include writing and editing, graphic design and multimedia development. They also must understand how to use website-building tools to design, layout and publish a website. Content developers may work with SEO strategists and social media managers to publicize a website, although sometimes they themselves are also responsible for these functions. Many of these careers are so novel that there are no established paths for getting trained for and finding such jobs. A multitude of websites, books and online courses teach new media skills. Once you're confident about your knowledge and skills, you can find jobs through online job postings or by attending industry conferences, seminars and workshops. When you're just starting out, an internship is a good way to get your foot in the door while taking advantage of on-the-job training. You can also network with potential customers and other professionals through blogs and social media. Developing a personal website that includes information about your training and experience is a great way to attract potential employers and advertise your skills. This article was written by Community Manager, Jenn Pedde, on behalf of CAREEREALISM-Approved Partner, 2tor â" an education technology company that partners with institutions of higher education such as University of Southern California to deliver top MSW programs. Jenn is also the co-founder of TheCommunityManager.com, and loves to travel. Photo Credit: Shutterstock Have you joined our career growth club?Join Us Today!

Gender Bias In Performance Reviews Is Holding Women Back
Gender Bias In wertmiger zuwachs Reviews Is Holding Women Back Three Latina Uber engineers fileuchtdiode a lawsuit against the ride-hailing app in San Francisco in October, claiming that women and people of color are systematically undervalued as part of the companys wertzuwachs review system. The lawsuit alleged that lower wertmiger zuwachs reviews have a domino affect on how the minority groups are treated at the company, which leads to fewer advancement opportunities, less benefits, unequal pay and stock compensation.Uber has been under fire before for its performance review system, which uses a stack ranking method that turns colleagues into competitors and welcomes unconscious gender biases. In June, an independent investigation led by former attorney general Eric Holder concluded that Uber needed to revamp its process to eliminate bias and misuse in an effort to restore employee trust in the performance evaluation system.The fact is, on top of being too infrequent and oft-rushe d, annual performance reviews across all companies in all industries are too often littered with unconscious bias. Recent research published in the Harvard Business Review finds that women are 1.4 times more like to receive subjective critical feedback (and less constructive critical feedback), and womens performances are more likely attributed to characteristics rather than skills and abilities.But thats elendhing new research on performance reviews gender bias is storied. In 2014, linguist Kieran Snyder collected 248 performance reviews from women and men across 28 companies in the tech industry, and she found that women were significantly more likely to receive critical feedback (87.9 percent, compared to 58.9 percent for men) and more likely to receive feedback based on their personality traits. While women were perceived as abrasive, bossy, aggressive, strident, emotional and irrational, men were considered confident and assertive.Performance reviews read like this for men The re were a few cases where it would have been extremely helpful if you had gone deeper into the details to help move an area forward.And they read like this for women You can come across as abrasive sometimes. I know you dont mean to, but you need to pay attention to your tone.Its a subtle but significant difference, and one that demonstrates how our gendered language consistently tells men how to win and women how not to fail. It also confines women to a double bind, through which theyre deemed too nice and thus incompetent or otherwise too bossy or any of the other aforementioned adjectives.In fact, performance reviews offer little explanation as to how women could improve if they indeedneed to do so.In 2016, research from Stanford Universitys Clayman Institute for Gender Researchs found that, across three high-tech companies and one professional services firm, feedback to men was full of granular detail and actionable advice and feedback to women was uselessly vague. The feedback also recognized mens independence, while it tended to tout womens team work and collaboration skills this encourages men and women to follow different paths and positions male employees as more-likely leaders.The researchers wrote in theHarvard Business Review that they have come to see performance evaluations as both a symptom of and a causefor womens underrepresentation in the upper tiers of the business world. Its a symptom because the evasive evaluations of womens work may reflect managers unconsciously biased sense that women are are not leaders with measurable accomplishments. And its a cause because the lack of valuable feedback makes improvement a near impossible feat for women both because its unclear as to where they need to improve and because improvement is difficult to measure without specifics to, well, measure.To make matters worse, researchers posit that women with male bosses may also be at an added disadvantage.Necessary critical feedback can be difficult for a ma nager to offer to anybody, but... it can be especially uncomfortable when it is given across a dimension of difference, such as gender, race, or age, they wrote. When giving critical feedback to women, male managers may be especially worried about how the feedback will be received.This worry is only exacerbated as male authorities in workplaces are increasingly weary over their workplace interactions, as sexual harassment claims come forth in droves.The MeToo campaign to bring the extensity of sexual harassment to the forefront of the media picked up traction after one woman spoke out, then two, then three, then unprecedented numbers We anticipate (and hope) that Uber engineers Ingrid Avendano, Roxana del Toro Lopez and Ana Medinas lawsuit will resonate in the same way.--AnnaMarie Houlis is a multimedia journalist and an adventure aficionado with a keen cultural curiosity and an affinity for solo travel.
