I started back in the days of film processing and now its mostly digital. Your salary will depend on the type of photography you enjoy and being awesome at photoshop doesnt make you a good photographer. You should enroll in College or join the US Air Force they have a great photography program. BTW Photoshop is a tool so learn lighting and compostion also. good luck BTW I make about 80K pr/yr
