This is a great question - ignore the doubters and naysayers and follow your dreams Christian. The word "photography" comes from the ancient Greek "photos" (meaning light) and "graphos" (meaning writing or drawing). Originally photography was called "heliography" (from Greek "helios", meaning sun, so "drawing with the sun") - why not revert to that old and fascinating name? In fact, I reckon you'll take excellent photographs, which will be so good that people will think they're like a dream, so don't call it PHOTOgraphy, call it DREAM-ography! Or, if you want to continue the Greek theme, Onirology (using the Greek "oniro", for "dream")
