BFA in photography can help you in any number of careers, a few of which are listed below. While this is by no means a complete list, it should give you an idea of the many opportunities available to you after MCAD.

Fine art photographers sell work to individuals, galleries, interior designers, architects, libraries, community centers, churches, banks, hotels, government and elsewhere on a freelance basis or by commission. Fine art photographers enjoy creative freedom not generally allowed to freelance or staff photographers, but they must also be extremely self-motivated.

Staff photographers produce images for magazines, advertisements, brochures, catalogs, corporate reports, publishers, architects or other individuals and businesses that want an event documented or an image that conveys a specific thought or story.

Freelance photographers are hired out on a job-by-job basis, a nice perk for those who prefer to make their own schedule or to work on a variety of projects. Freelancers do many of the same jobs as staff photographers, without the benefit of a consistent paycheck. Some freelancers specialize in areas such as portraits, aerial photography by plane, weddings or fashion.

Documents medical symptoms and patient progress as well as documenting evidence for the police. Documents crime scenes and evidence as well as autopsy results. Education or experience in criminal justice is often important to get these positions.

A photojournalist documents history with a camera by photographing newsworthy people, places, or events. They typically work for a newspaper, journal, magazine or television network and produce powerful photographs that capture the facts of the story they are covering.

Photography studio owners administrate independent studios or divisions of a larger firm, (i.e. an advertising agency or marketing division of a large corporation). This position requires business savvy in a addition to artistic talents.
