Bottom line "College photography?"

Chile Chef

As soon as my college photography gets done on an academic side, What kind of doors will open for me? "I really don't want to shoot people" but I will if I have too.

I know the class is an inductory class and will teach the basic's,

The basics will be good for me, but what I'm asking if I work my buns off? What doors will open for me?

Just so people will no what I like to shoot, I like to shoot, Anything with wheels, odd stuff that no one wants to shoot, Food, and some macro shooting, But I'm still learning how to macro shoot.

Well, the reality is that no doors will automatically open for you when you graduate. It is up to you to find a few doors and open them yourself!
Especially in this economic climate, with newspapers folding and the larger outlets making huge rights grabs, there are a lot of experieneced photogs as well as new grads out there trying to find a niche.
So, find an area of photo that you love to do, research it, and go out there and make it work!

Oh yeah, and take a few business courses while you're still in school so you will know how to make $$$ when you open shop!
