Unfortunately, it is often found that young people are not usually encouraged to pursue different talents or pathways to those which their parents have expressed for them but it is equally important to grow one's talents and skills.

I would advise you to have a sit down with your family and explain to them as to why you love photography, how it makes you feel as a person, what you get out of it, and how you think it can benefit your future career. People are different and sometimes we just need to make people understand how we feel about certain things for us to be on the same page. I wish you good luck
