I am a ft interior designer, full time mom that also does part time photography on the side. I currently make 90K as a designer and bring in around 20K as a photographer/yr. My design job allows for me to work 100% remotely which helps with daycare pick up and drop off. I feel like I am not making as much as I should as an interior designer PM, and I have spoken to my higher ups about a pay raise with no luck since the pandemic hit the coliving residential market hard. *Continued below*

I'm not sure how much money this would make, but have you considered offering freelance photo editing services? This seems like something in your wheelhouse that there could be a demand for.

There are also ways you can license and sell stock photos, which could be some passive income.

Thank you for your suggestion, ive thought about atock photos and tried it with very little luck since my current photography library is of corporate portraits and architectural photography. I havent looked at freelance editing services, thats something I will pay some attention to. Thank you!

I wanna be able to live a life where I do not have to worry much about overspending at Target or think 10x before I order a cocktail with dinner. The photography gig is very time consuming, but I have a few loyal clients and love doing it. What other opportunities could be out there for someone with my experience that I can take advantage of for more than 20K/ yr PT but leas than 20 hrs/week work and still allows time for me to be a mom to a 9 month d baby. Having my baby has put me on “make as much money for as little work possible” kick but my research isnt getting me anywhere with my limited phone/laptop time when im with my family. Any thoughts are highly appreciated!

I’m convinced that the reason some of these firms are so prestigious is because they have intentionally exclusionary recruitment practices.
