I'm a casual photographer, but I was using some of my photos about ten years ago to promote a band I was working in.

We'd take pictures of promotional events at various clubs that we played, and put them in newsletters we'd distribute to our mailing list.

Since then, I've messed around a little with a digital camera, making some gif files and home movies.

I'd like to take it to the next level sometime.

I'm not sure what your definition of "worked with" is but I first took classes in the 5th grade at a visual arts magnet school so 10+ is a good general answer for me in any manner. I've been taking pictures of family trips and sites we visited on the way (we moved alot) since I was a little kid though. Once I finally got my own camera that took decent pictures I became much more able to practice what I learned from the classes, although not as much as I'd like.

I too started a long time ago. I was in early secondary school, which would have put me at about 14 years old when I took my first photography and darkroom class. I didn't stop after that.

My equipment was never the best and I only ever remained an amateur but I am a very happy one!

Not been working with photography for that long, to be honest. Maybe a few months properly?

I've been interested right from the beginning really. My parents are graphic designers so I grew up in that kind of visual environment. I first really got into it myself when I was about 12 or so I would say so thats around 7 years

Ive been intrested in photography for a long time. I was thinking of doing for a living and setting up my own business but it just worked out to expensive. Ive got an A* GCSE and an A grade A-level. I'm currently doing a Diploma in it aswell.

I have been a photographer for more than 20 years. I have always loved taking photos and enjoyed doing this. I have the ability to shoot weddings and portraits for a living, but really enjoy stock photography or landscapes.

I have been interested in photography since I was about six years old but I didn't really get into it until recently. Photography is one of my hobbies and I use a digital camera to take pictures.
