Stable income: Somewhat stable

I’d rate it a 2 out of 5 because while some pet photographers can establish a steady client base and earn consistently, many experience significant fluctuations in demand and income. The market can be competitive, and income often depends on location, marketing efforts, and client retention. It's not as predictable as a regular paycheck, and many people find it challenging to rely on this as a sole income source without supplementary work.
