Photography used to be a good career, but things changed and it's much harder to get paid than it used to be. I suppose it could still potentially be an okay side hustle though, just probably not something to live on by itself.
There are different things you can do with it as well. Jaspreet, sounds like your friend is an event photographer? That's one way. Another way would be to take portraits (some people do well taking photos of children especially, lots of parents and grandparents will pay for fancy pics of their children, especially if there are interesting backgrounds or costumes, eg. dressing them up in sports uniforms of your team, or like angels or fairies etc.). You can also sell stock photos to stock photo websites, although that's probably being replaced these days by AI.
