Sell Photographs and Digital Photos
Sell photographs and digital photos for profit to newspapers, magazines and websites. Get cash payment
for each photo:
There are many organisations, publications, companies, people, and websites who will pay you to take pictures
or will buy your photographs. For example editors of newspapers and magazines may find it cheaper to employ a
freelance photographer. This enables you to work for them whilst still enjoying the flexibility of being
self employed. The editor gets pictures for his magazine or newspaper and readers enjoy looking at the photos.
Everyone is a winner!
Use your camera to earn money with these ideas and information:
Sell Pictures To Internet Websites
There are many webmasters who love to create websites and web pages but may lack the expertise to take a quality
photograph. Instead they will happily pay a photographer for quality digital photos. You can charge for each photograph
and should have scales of charges for multiple purchases, exclusive rights and for stock photos.
There are some websites that specialise in working as an agent between photographer and purchaser. This frees up
your time to take more photographs, rather than spending your time negotiating prices, sending invoices, chasing
up payments, etc. The agency will do all the administration for you and may even secure a higher fee. Though the
agency will take a commission you may not notice this if they have negotiated higher fees for your photographs. You will
also have the benefit of more webmasters seeing your photography work and should sell more pictures. There is no reason
why you could not join several such sites that will have different client bases. Let the agency do the administration work
whilst you get on with the job you love - taking photographs for profit and enjoyment.
The photography course City & Guilds Basic Photography will teach you how to effectively use your camera and lenses and photography techniques, composition and lighting through to picture design, presentation and final portfolio techniques.
Sell Photos To Newspapers And Magazines
There are several reasons that a newspaper or magazine editor will buy your photographs:
Freelance Photography Work
Some publications may have several photographers working full time whilst other publications may use a team of
freelance photographers who they can call upon to work occasionally or regularly as the need arises. For example
a journalist may have telephone interviewed someone living in Aberdeen from their office in London. They do not
want to send a full time photographer from London all the way to Aberdeen. The photographer will spend too long
travelling to the location and may even have to stay overnight. The publication has the expenses of travelling
and accommodation. It is cheaper to employ a freelance photographer in Aberdeen to visit the location, take the required
photography work and send them to the editor. Especially if the photographer can send digital photos by e-mail. The
freelance photographer gets the standard fee and the publication saves on unnecessary expenses and free up their full
time staff to work on other projects.
You could approach various magazines and newspapers with a CV and examples of your photography work and request to
be placed on their freelance network. There are literally thousands of publications - just look in your local newsagent
for examples of magazines and papers to contact.
An easier option would be to sign up with photography agencies nationwide and in your local area. Though they take
a commission for each job you will have saved yourself a lot of administration and leg work. Such an agency
will have the professional contacts and can secure better rates of pay for your photography work.
Opportunistic Photography
Do carry at least one of your cameras around with you at all times. Or at the least carry your mobile telephone with
built in digital camera. That way you can take opportunistic photographs like seeing a celebrity doing something
interesting, an accident, a crime, a rare sighting of a bird, etc. Newspapers will pay heavily for such work - especially
if you are prepared to sign over exclusive rights. Do weigh up in your conscious of how the publication of a
photograph will affect a person or his or her family with your need to earn a living. For example if you witness
a terrorist attack and are on the spot and are in a position to take photographs of victims you have to consider
that the person's family may view such distressing photos against the needs of the public to see such images in the news.
That example is extreme so consider something that would be in the public interest - you are walking along the shores
of Loch Ness and see the monster! Imagine how hard you would kick yourself if you did not have your camera! A more
realistic example may be that you spot a Hollywood actor or actress somewhere in the UK and you take a few pictures
of them doing something they should not. Celebrity and gossip magazines would pay handsomely for the photographs.
Do also consider local newspapers. They may pay less but you could get regular work from an opportunistic photo.
For example you may take a picture of a rare weather condition of the wind effect out to sea. Locals will buy a paper
to see this or pictures of a local bank robbery, criminals, accidents, village fetes, local concerts etc.

Sell Funny Pictures
If you have taken a humorous photograph, perhaps even inadvertaently, you can still earn from this photo. Magazines
like Take A Break, That's Life and other women's magazines will pay you for the picture. Do consider taking these
photographs deliberately for profit.
Send Photos To Papers
Some papers, particularly local newspapers have a photograph of the day. Most do not pay you for these photos. However
this avenue should not be dismissed. You may occasionally want to send in a photo for publication for many reasons. For
example you may be noticed in your local area and be commissioned for future photography work or someone may want
to buy the original or a copy of the photograph. You may even be approached by the newspaper for freelance
photography work.
Sell photographs and digital photos for profit with the information listed above and make your hobby or interest
earn you a living.
