  You should go for it. I've really enjoyed diversifying where I earn my money. I have always been one of those people who have a million side hustles and used to castigate myself for never focusing. At some point I decided to just embrace it, do everything, and see what worked. A few things have: https://www.isaacforman.com.au/ https://www.isaacforman.com.au/ I think my tips would be to think of what content people will buy. Lots of people near me focus on beaches or random public places which have limited commercial opportunities. One of my focal points has been wineries[1]. You can sell the content to the winery, to the local wine association, to tourism authorities, to wine trade, wine tours, and so on. And there are ways to do it where you come across like a helper rather than a salesperson. Then you persist until people are approaching you to commission shoots.
