Filed in archive Photography by Andrew Garrett on January 4, 2006

Someone told me you could go door to door with one of those twin-lens reflex cameras and do baby photography, so I got a strobe and a camera and started shooting." He made some money, got an apartment in Brooklyn Heights and a new job in a medical center doing black-and-white lab photography. And when he started showing his portfolio of personal color photography, he immediately started getting assignments. Thirty-seven years later, he's still at it.

As someone who's looking more seriously than ever at starting up, it's interesting to see how other people got started - even if it was 37 years ago...
