Perhaps because it’s easier to “make it” as a magician. As a wannabe photographer, it’s exhausting trying to build an audience/clientele, manage your social media presence, get accepted into local art shows or crawls, etc. all while still building your craft and buying the gear. I don’t know what it takes to get to a satisfactory level of being a magician, but I imagine you can at least get a few shows with family/friends right away. As I was writing that (still going to keep for posterity’s sake), I’ve realized maybe it’s because there’s much more play in their art. It’s very whimsical.
