okay, so, iPhoto was replaced with Photos. As a photographer, I relied heavily upon importing my photos from my camera to iPhoto. With iPhoto go, where will my imported photos go now? I don't want them to go to Photos either because then they'll go onto my iPhone and iPad through iCloud. I don't want that. So do I have to buy a completely different software just to import my photos?
You are chasing imaginary deamons
iPhoto is not gone - photos is an addition nothing has been removed except the iPhoto icon in the Dock, it is still in your applications folder and works just fine if you have version 9.6.1 - if not you have to update to 9.6.1
With either Photos or iPhoto when you import your photos go into the respective library
With Photos you do not have to use iCloud or PhotoStream - it works just fine with a totally local library
You do not have to buy anything - you can use Image Capture, Photos, iPhoto or the finder to import photos - 4 different choices all on your Mac

My software is up to date. If you can still use iPhoto, why is there a symbol over it that tells me that I can't use it? And indeed, when I click on it I cannot open it.
HI I have the same issue and cannot do an update as the update is not available in the UK why
then you are mistaken - your software is NOT up to date and you need to install iPhoto 9.6.1 to use iPhoto with OS X 10.10.3 - see Why won't my iPhotos open? if you are having problems updating

It says my current version is 10.10.3, so it is up to date.
try reading the answer

I will underline and bold the part you did not read to make it easier for you

10.10.3 is the version of your operating system, not iPhoto. If you don't have version 9.6.1 of iPhoto it will not open on Yosemite 10.10.3.
You need to update iPhoto, not Yosemite.
Read the post linked to by Larry above.
Where do my photos go with iPhoto gone?
