Sole Proprietorship
I'm beginning a free lance photography business and would like some pointers about deductions. I'm keeping all photography related receipts and logging mileage. I will pay for the business license soon since I just landed a contractor job with a magazine. Can I deduct all receipts which predate my business license? What about travel expenses (lodging, meals) incurred where I do a lot of photography not related to the magazine position? In addition to the magazine I also sell photographs to individuals (and keep receipts showing payment). May I deduct a portion of rent and utilities too? Any help is appreciated. Nice photo under your user name by the way!
