I am just curious how many would consider themselves a photographer or a Graphic Artist?

I am mainly a photographer (I may have said this before) who uses PSP for that reason. I am interested in Graphic Art and Design, but have little experience. I have been thinking of going back to school to get a degree in Graphic Design to complitment my photography work, and in the even I start a business to help diversify my services offered.
Photographer
I don't do photography at all.
I do digital art on images I find or that I create myself with tubes, brushes, plugins, and effects in the PSP program.
Tom, I am glad I am not the only Photographer here.

3B digital art if you need an image maybe we have something you are looking for Smile

My wife does all the photography. I have trouble just turning on cameras. Smile
both!!!
I dabble in both.
Graphic "Artist" mostly. Good photographer but still amateur, however, I am quick to recognize the key aspects in a photo and work from those parts.
I am a photographer. After taking pictures of my kids, I have began taking pictures for other people and it has turned into a part-time business for me. I always use PSP with any photo I take.

Sounds like a lot of people I know. I can't decide if I want to do a studio or not. Photography is kind of my niche. I wouldn't choose to do portrait exclusively, but it is the easiest to get work in.

I'm neither really. I can take decent photos, and occasionally get a really good one. I can make a convincing digital staple from scratch, among other things, but I wouldn't call myself an artist either.

I need a whole new category, just for me Smile
I sort of need to be in that whole new category myself. Jack of all trades, master of none. I guess I would be considered a tinkerer? A little dab of this, a little dab of that.

In all honesty, I am just having fun, and even when I am working on CorelDraw vector graphics for my sister's t-shirt business, it's fun and never work.
I'm with Jane! I am an amateur photographer and an an enthusiast with PSP. I love them both and am constantly trying to improve my skills. Shh

Jane, I would call you a PSP Pro... love your site and tutes!
I do a little photography but really nothing professional!

I love graphic arts. I play around with many graphics programs but my favorite is definitely PSP.

I also enjoy many 3D programs such as VUE, Poser, Bryce etc.
