Online Photography Guide - E-book - ePub

There are photos on the billboards as you drive to work. There are photos in the magazines when you sit in your dentist's waiting room, and you are bombarded with photos galore the moment you turn on your computer and start browsing the Internet. The point is, every industry needs photographs. And while there are many experts out there who get paid very handsomely for the photographs they churn out (think major magazine photographers), amateurs are able to make great money doing what they love, too!That's right.
You don't have to be a professional. You can go out right now, pick up a digital camera and you can theoretically start making money off of those photographs. And I'm going to show you how. First, however, before you rush out thinking you're the next Annie Leibovitz, you need to consider if you have what it takes to make money from your photos. That can be a hard thing to ascertain, especially when you have a passion for something.
Because the truth is, you could enthusiastically take loads and loads of pictures but there's no guarantee that any of them will sell. To fail at something you love to do can hurt deep down in your core. But you must remember that just because your photo doesn't sell, doesn't mean you're no good. It could be for a number of reasons. The point is to have patience, and make sure you learn how it's done before you start selling your photos for money.
