Make Money With Your Camera - Check out our Photography Money Making Ideas.

Maybe it is easy for me to say as I have over 20 years experience, a huge stock of images and some fairly good contacts in the business. However, even for someone just starting out, there are many ways in which to get yourself seen and to also earn good money with your camera.

This page will grow as we build All Things Photography, but we wanted to get it up and running now that we are receiving a fair amount of traffic through this site (5,000 photographers a day).

No matter what stage you are at or what experience you have, if you can take a half decent photograph, you are on the way to making money with your camera. It may take time to get started, but if it was that easy, EVERYONE would do it.

Now, obviously as a beginner, you won't be going out and doing society weddings or anything (are you?) at this stage. You need to get to know your camera, how it works and then start to use it to your best advantage. The first thing you should maybe look at is selling your images as stock as detailed further down the page.

Why pay a fortune for someone else to build your website only to hope that your beautiful looking pages eventually get found. Why not, for just $1 a day, teach yourself how to be the master of your own destiny and do it yourself knowing that you can get yourself and your business seen by thousands of people daily.

It doesn't even have to be a photography site but this is who we use...

This is probably more for the more experienced Digital SLR user, but is by no means out of reach for newbies. If you are fairly confident with your camera and need new direction, motivation or guidance on how to start up your own photography business, this could be for you.

My main income from photography comes from Weddings, Commercial, Portraits and Stock as well as the one thing that actually brings me those jobs - Property Photography. Rather than battle it out with hundreds of other photographers for work, by learning a niche and specializing in something not many photographers do, you can grab so much of the action.

Ok, I am new so where can I sell stock photographs? or Sell photographs for money? how do I compete with all the professionals and what do I do?

Many agencies require high quality, high standards of photographs taken by very expensive cameras and which are used by large advertising agencies. this maybe out of some peoples leagues for now, but there is hope...

Well, think about it. The large stock agencies sell high quality photographs by professional photographers like those above to large, wealthy companies! So who sells photos to the smaller businesses that can't afford the large prices? You do! If you have any decent photographs on your computer or are willing to go out and take a few, I will show you where to send them.

You will need good photographs of everyday subjects that I will cover in a minute, but if you have a digital camera of 3 mega pixels or more...read on!

Now this is a system that I for one hadn't looked at before, I have always put my stock photographs on with the large agencies and they make good money but not that often and the competition is fierce. Corbis have over 3,500,000 images on their files. How do you compete?

I came across a rapidly growing company that charges very low prices for its photographs (approximately $139 will get you 750 images in a month if you are buying). Now this means there are people constantly on this site downloading photographs and they need more...a lot more images to keep up with the growth.

As a submitting photographer, you only get 38 cents per photograph downloaded, but each buyer will download a minimum of 750 images each month therefore thousands of images are downloaded daily. If they are just sitting unseen on your PC, what do you have to lose?

The great thing is that they have now started a new system and a bunch of new sites whereby you will earn up to $2.85 per "on demand" image downloaded so it just gets better. Your images get uploaded here automatically so there is less work for you!

Plus...If you sell an image with an "extended license", you will earn $28!

I expect to hear from professionals saying this is bad for stock photography, but I disagree. This is just another sector of the market that caters for the beginner and amateur photographer, as well as the smaller business wanting to buy stock.

So, if you have any images of 4MB or more that would be suitable, and they are just sitting on your PC, you are wasting money. I uploaded 50 yesterday and am waiting for their approval. They are the same as the ones I have on with a larger agency and I will earn a lot less, but it is still more than I had before yes?

Click the links below to Shutterstock and two other popular, high selling agencies, sign up and registration is genuine and absolutely free so you have nothing to lose. The beauty is that once they are there, you have an income for life! Once you have registered, look at their "Best sellers" and other types of photos that they have and start uploading. Use the forums for advice and start earning. How much are your pictures earning you at the moment?

You could also join our new private membership site at ATP Members and read our huge stock photography training section which goes into every detail you need to know to start earning with stock photography.

If you live in the UK, you could enrol on our 2 day stock photography course in Dorset.
