Stable income: Somewhat stable

I’d rate it a 2 out of 5 because while some wedding photographers can earn a decent income, the market is highly competitive and seasonal. Many photographers experience significant fluctuations in bookings and income, making it difficult to rely on as a consistent monthly income source. The need for marketing, client acquisition, and the variability of wedding seasons contribute to this instability. However, those who establish a strong reputation and network may find more stability, but this is not the norm for most starting out. ⚠️ We’ve noticed people overuse 2 — if this side hustle can consistently support someone full-time, your rating should reflect that.
