Just because it's not an exact comparison doesn't mean the analogy fails.

Edit: I think there is confusion based on her word choices. I mention it in another comment.

You can have all the hobbies you want. But undercharging for hobby work does fuck over the actual photographers.

Everyone is looking for an amazing hobbiest to shoot their wedding and beating the fuck out of the professionals doing it for a living because they want a couple of grand for a solid week of work.

Seriously, just ask the people attending the wedding to send pictures to you, people would love to help.

My wife has been doing professional work for years, over the past decade or so, drastically more clients browbeat her mercilessly to the point that she has to fire them. What do you mean you need $200 to come to my house and do headshots, it's only worth $25.

If you have offers for $25 you should take them. Her stuff is really good, they know they don't want the $25 they're just not willing to pay a living wage to get it.
