Career Levels Photography Career ~ Love taking photos of anything and everything, from that vase of flowers in the hallway, to your best friend dancing drunkenly at the pub last night? Maybe you’ve even had aspirations to become a wedding photographer, or even simply to be paid for the time and effort involved in each photo. This is the career path for you!
1. Amateur ~ You just take photo’s for fun and let some friends come over to pose, but you don’t mean anything in the photographers’ world. Wages: §10/hour Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Work hours: 9.00am ~ 5.00pm 2. Photographer's Assistant ~ Working as an Assistant Photographer is one of the best routes into a career in professional photography. Assistant Photographers must be prepared to do whatever is necessary to ensure that a photographic shoot runs smoothly. This typically involves preparing sets, checking that all equipment is functioning properly, setting up lighting and accessories, taking meter readings, transmitting files and transporting film or prints to and from laboratories. Wages: §18/hour Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Work hours: 9.00am ~ 5.00pm 3.

Advertising and Editorial Photographer ~ For photographers who enjoy travel, meeting creative people and solving visual challenges, a career in Advertising and Editorial Photography is a highly attractive prospect. Advertising and Editorial Photographers produce seductive images that are used to support or demonstrate a marketing idea in answer to a photographic brief given to them by a client, a designer or an advertising agency. The photographs are used to help describe and sell a product or idea, and are usually accompanied by a short phrase or strap-line.

Press Photographer ~ Press Photographers produce photographs of current events, and the people involved in them, on a daily basis, for national or local newspapers, news magazines and press agencies. Images are invariably shot on location, using hand-held digital cameras with a portable electronic flash, with the photographer also carrying a laptop and a mobile phone so that they can download images directly to the picture desk. Wages: §71/hour Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Work hours: 9.00am ~ 4.00pm 6. Medical Photographer ~ Medical Photographers record the work of healthcare professionals in hospitals and clinics, as well as producing detailed images of patients' injuries and diseases for use in treatment and education.

Wages: §125/hour Days: Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday Work hours: 9.00am ~ 3.00pm 7. Forensic Photographer for NCIS ~ While it may not always be quite as glamorous as depicted on TV, forensic photography is still a fascinating area of work suitable to highly organised photographers who combine excellent technical skills with a methodical and meticulous working practice. Forensic Photographers produce a permanent visual record of the scenes of accidents and crime scenes for use as evidence in court. They must be able to produce detailed recordings of all the available evidence at the scene, including overview photographs as well as accurate images of tire marks, fingerprints, footprints, blood spatters, bullet holes and other unique evidence at the scene.

Wages: §400/hour Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday Work hours: 9.00am ~ 2.00pm 9.

Technical Stuff:
This career was made with patch 1.38 and should work with all lower patches. It requires the Base Game and World Adventures to work (since that was the expansion the Photography skill came with) and should work with any other combination of expansion and stuff packs. It works in my game but if you have problems, let me know :)
Translating
Since I'm not fluent in any language other than English, the career is only written in the one language. So if you're interested in translating, download the Language Strings file and open it in Notepad.
The way of requesting has changed a lot in the past 5 years.
From a simple form to fill out, which people can reach all the time, it's developed to an excelfile on Google Docs (not everyone has MS Office), which I provide from the moment the requester contacts me.
This way I have personal contact with the requester which makes it easier to help with the request. The requester needs to want the career enough to put some effort in it.
The way the file is build gives the requester the chance to see if the career is accepted or not. The file tells you that the request is accepted or not while you're filling it out.
The only reason why a request can be rejected (if the file says the request is accepted): is spelling and grammar.
The file can't check that by itself.
So I still check following things:
Spelling and grammar:
I read the descriptions very quickly. If I see just the onemistake, I stop looking further.
Punctuation (at the end of a sentence)
Do the sentences make any sense?
Apostrophe's (you are = you're; your = your)
No abbreviations (kinda, gonna,...)
Capital letter (Begin of sentence, countries,...)
Form of the sentence
Descriptions:
This is mostly based on MTS's rules. They reject careers for this:
Growth in the career
Creativity
No repetition (like the word now or you)
Length of description (at least 4 sentences, (long enough))
This is all found very clearly in the instructions on the file too. A Lot of requests have been accepted so there are people who dofollow the instructions correctly.
The form is made in such a way it's nearly impossible to have a reason for rejection. You need to check two main things. If these are good, the request is accepted and uploaded asap:
