I'm actually considering transforming my music recording studio into a photo studio. It's not practical to try to get to a professional level on both music and photography in my opinion. I'm kind of in a limbo/gray zone right now. After reading your story, I could say you're very lucky because you did everything for passion but in my case, I have to consider which one's a better business. Yours became an expensive hobby but it made you happy didn't it?

Wow! Really?
The only thing I can think of that's more expensive than a music studio... is, in fact, a photography studio! I completely agree with the impracticality of trying to master two things, especially two things that you could easily spend an entire lifetime on and still not have covered half.
I did love my studio photography, I loved the process and I especially loved how excited people got when they were given a great photo of themselves. It's such a great measure of that moment.
I was totally lucky that I had a full time job that could support this hobby masquerading as a side-hussle. Have you decided?
