Answer Matt,
There is no one answer to this question. It just doesn't work that way. Think about it for a second. What kind of photographer are you talking about? All you say to me is "my dream job". Well? If I'm a photojournalist working for a big paper or tv network, I could be in IRAQ on assignment. In which case there is no NINE to FIVE. You go when and where the story is. You could be working for one of the big boys and pulling down $65,000 a year. Or you could be working as a freelance and you only get paid if you bring back some great pictures. Or maybe you're a crime scene photographer. Well, then you might only work when there is something to take a photo of. And getting paid city wages. Think about it. And when you have an idea what you want to do, you'll know who to actually ask.
