Freelancing is when the photographer goes out and takes his shots then has to hope that they are good enough to be bought by the editer or owner of a magazine or web page etc, but if there pictures are not good enough then they will not receive a pay check.
Architectural photographers also make money through freelancing but can also make there money through a salaried job such as taking photographs of houses or flats which are being sold on the market etc.

Architectural
War
The architectural photographs and ideas come from a number of different objects such as buildings, famous landmarks, different landscapes and cities.
The war photography is both shocking and eye opening and i believe it is very effective in the way that it achieves getting the point of the photographs across.
The war photographers take their photographs in war torn countries and cities such as Iraq, Palestine and Israel, they risk there lives in order for the world to see and understand exactly what is going on in these countries and what the wars consist of e.g fighting, injured soldiers and civilians etc.
The architectural photographs may have a persuasive affect to them by either convincing the viewer to go and visit a certain city or landscape or even convince someone to buy a certain house after seeing photographs of it on a magazine or in an estate agents window etc.
