No, they all work for free.

no they work for free
3 :
Not legally. Their treasury dept. makes the money. Photographers earn it.
4 :
Unfortunately, the japanese have desigated several industries as not receiving any compensation. Bakers Crane Operators Photographers Etc. Sorry for the bad news.
5 :
There is a need for photographers there just like there is anywhere else in the world. As for how much money they make, I don't know. I think you should come to Japan as a tourist, study the langauge and do some research. Good luck.
6 :
I think they work for free also is being a photographer awsome Im 14 and Im really into taking pics of anything that catches my eye
7 :
You would need to be able to read, write, and speak Japanese to do that.
8 :
dont have time for a long reply, but they do quite well. Every child, due to tradition gets their photo taken at aged 3, 7 etc. Plus school events and stuff, so every child in the photo will want a copy. I have a friend who has been running their store for many generations now, the current owner is like fifth generation. money bags Id think.
9 :
Even down in Kagoshima amateur photographers are a dime a dozen. If you want to be a pro, there is not much in terms of high profile work, but the private studio business is quite popular. As a foreigner, without an established name, it would really be difficult for you to break into the business. What kind of photography are you talking about? Portrait? Still? Nature? Art?
10 :
Learn Japanese first. Most of the ppl in the industry do not speak English.
11 :
yess they make A LOT of money in Japan. Visitors in Japan will buy it off you if it is good and it shows a little bit of Japan!

I am actually working in Japan as a product photographer though I have a background in fine art photography, and as far as money is concerned it is pretty much the same as if you were working in any large metropolitain area in the United States namely New York, LA, or the San Francisco bay area. Though I work freelance, I have friends who work in large studios doing product photography, mainly for Toyota and other auto manufacturers, and from what they say the work is stable and the pay is fair. Your pay of course is dependant upon what kind of skills you have. For example someone who is a specialist at photoshop(this depends on your skill and your speed) can make anywhere from around 12-25 an hour. If you are looking at working in a large studio then my suggestion is to learn to speak or at least listen to Japanese really well. If you have worked in a large studio before you know how communication is so critical, and if you are not familiar Japanese studio photographers can be quite short tempered and if things arent going right, they wont hesitate to hit you on the back of your head and yell at you. If you do decide to move here, then my suggestion is to move to Tokyo where there are a lot more jobs in the advertising and photography industry. The problem of course about working in Tokyo is that it costs quite a bit to live there, so plan on living in the outskirts and communting because lets be honest photography isnt exactly a career that one pursues for lots and lots of money.

How a teen can make money for a trip?
How a teen can make money for a trip?
I'm too young for a job, and i'm going on an approx. $4600.00 trip to Japan in April that i have to pay for myself. I need help to make money any suggestions are helpful! There's no one in my neighborhood to babysit, and yardwork is a no-no. I've already asked my parents if they'll pay me to do extra chores around the house, and i already get an allowance (not that it'll help). I make stuff and sell it (art) and i'm probably going to sell my old stuff either on eBay or in a garage sale. Please, no lemonade stands AND NO ONLINE SURVEYS. I'm too young for a job - legally. My parents said 'they'd think about it' when i asked if theyd pay me to do extra chores. yardwork is a 'no-no' because it rains all the time, and when it isnt raining, its suuuper hot outside.

play guitar or some instrument on a busy street corner with a case or hat for collecting money.

Why are you too young for a job? What did your parents say when you asked if they'll pay you to do extra chores? Why is yardwork a "no-no"? It seems to me you're looking for an excuse as to why you can't work. Your question shows you have a pretty good idea of the options available. If you're sincere about wanting to make enough money to fund the trip, you'll find a way.

If there's a will, there's a way, you definately have the determination and have put some serious thought into this, just remember you can do it! I'm saving up for my trip right now, I got a job at a kitchen working dishwasher! Its good money and as long as you can put away dishes, be organized and effiecient, there's no age restrictions. Theres plenty of others too! Just screw what people think, even if you have to work at macdonalds, save up for the trip, life is all about experiences. Make sure to send resumes out everywhere. Just don't let your work get in the way of school, if you dont save up enough, I'm sure there will be more eventually, keep your head up kid, your young you got your whole life to live, live it to the fullest, its good setting goals. Now go do it! I believe in you! ps, along the way there might be some tough times and some roadblocks, ie parents, co-workers, friends. Remember just stay positive and dont listen to what other people say. Good luck!!! Mike.
