Ever thought about using your digital camera to make some extra cash? A lot of people are making quite a tidy secondary income and in some cases, their primary income from the photos they take as they go about their daily business. The only difference between them and you is, they carry a camera with them, keep their eyes open and know how and where to sell the photos they do take.
And you'd be surprised at what sells. Just about anything you can think of is fair game for a sale. Someone, somewhere will be looking for the type of photograph you may already have sitting on your hard drive. Your job is to get it into their hands.
Do you have to be a salesman? Absolutely not. This is all taken care of for you by what is known as a 'stock photography' agency. Basically, you upload your photographs to their site where they are stored in a digital catalogue which is searchable by potential customers. If they like your picture and want to use it, they have to pay to download it.You as the photographer get paid a royalty. But the good news is, your photograph can be downloaded many, many times. That means you could be earning a nice little passive income for years to come from just one photograph. Multiply that by ten or a hundred photos and you could just leave the day job behind.
What do you need to be able to do this? Not much actually. A decent quality digital camera (roundabout the 3mp mark and above is fine), a computer with an internet connection, basic photo editing software and a can-do attitude.
Does it cost you to join a stock site? Absolutely not. It is completely free to join and upload as many images you want. They only get paid when you do.
