Market for professional before/after portraits?



Recommended Posts

I am wondering if there could be a market for before and after portraits of bariatric patients.

I know overweight people generally do not like their photos taken. However, having been a former patient, I might be able to find a niche market for my area as future patients might be more comfortable with a former patient who could definitely see their future selves

I would take photographs at local "outdoor scenes" so that they can be followed up at the same place in the future by anyone. Photography is more of a professional hobby for me, but I have never got into the "portrait" arena. This might be a fun venture.

I have never seen a good before, or even good after pictures. I think the before pictures are all just horrible. Even in doctors offices, they are so bad, my center stopped taking posting them on walls. I would even hang out with them for some activities for candids, because many patients change what and how they do things afterwards. So instead of having horrible pictures to show people, they'll have something; nice.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
