Outlook
The U.S. Department of Labor reports that employment for photographers at print newspapers will decline by approximately 33 percent through 2028 as a result of industry consolidation, declines in advertising revenue, and the continuing transition of print publications to digital formats. Photojournalism is a highly competitive field, but individuals who develop a strong portfolio, develop and maintain professional contacts, and stay on the edge of digital technology will find job opportunities in the future.
