My question is. how on earth can you make a good living nowdays? There was a day when my family did some sort of portraits at least once a year with a pro but nowdays it's just too easy to use your phone. hell my S3 phone takes better pics than my Sony SLR.
I make a good living by treating this as a business and not a hobby. Like any business, you need to always work on it. I try and stay unique with my work and treat every client I have like how I expect to be treated.

Sure you can take a family photo with your S3 if that's what you want, and it's good enough for you. People who are looking for a real family portrait will always hire a professional.
