Answer:

When I grow up, I want to be a photographer, and that makes my mom really proud.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a comma making it a complex sentence and a conjunction making it compound as well so it's a compound-complex sentence

and two independent clauses and one dependent clause make a compound-complex sentence.
