What is a professional photographer?

One of the questions that I tend to shy away from, is the “what makes someone a professional photographer” I’ve shied away from this for the simple fact that there are many different ways to qualify a “Professional Photographer” Today, I was talking to a friend of mine and she was telling about a pro photog friend of hers, who wasn’t getting image comments that she liked, so she took all her photos down. Is this how a pro should act? IMHO, no, not at all.

The comments I’m going to make next are qualifiers that I use to determine a “Professional Photographer”. In no way, shape or form, should this list be taken as the end all, be all of what is or is not a pro, just my observation.
