Photography business

Hi DGs

Is it easy to make photos and sell it to companies or whoever wants thème.
I am talking about being a photographer man and travel a lot and make photos exhibition .
Thanks

 

Like anything, its going to be how much personal work you put into it.

You will have to market yourself and work hard. Technically you want to become a freelancer photographer.
Companies (fortune 500 for example) generally won't be ones purchasing photographs. Design Agencies who deal with their advertising/branding/marketing will.

You need to ask yourself:

• What can my photography offer than others? This will let you know how to market yourself.
  
• What is my strongest point? Do you take great portraits/landscapes/macro/sports photographs?

Check out this guide on freelance photography for a rough idea:

• http://digital-photography-school.com/successful-freelance-photographer/

I recommend (if you havent already) to start uploading your photographs to social media platforms (don't stick an ugly watermark on them, just sign the bottom right corner of them)

• Behance
• Flickr
• Etc...

Find other people who are successful freelance photographers, contact them, ask them meaningful questions.

 

You can check our service https://fliiby.com we monetize free lance photography like youtube does with video.. Ad revenue share..

 

any form of service that you want to offer will always have potential market for the service or the product. All it requires for it to outdo others is the skills portrayed in the service, the uniqueness and how you promote your product. There are very may photographers out there who are doing good for you to out do them or have a share in the great market then you need a lot of good strategy to penetrate the market and establish your self. alo quality will greatly sell you. Thanks and all the best

 

On a different note. Who sets the prices on the stock photo sites? I've never sold on any of them, so I don't have a personal experience, but their prices are just crazy. $30 for two average looking images? Crazy. And good luck with that.

 

You can see a list of everything you need to start a wedding or portrait photography businessincluding all the costs for each item.

 

i thinks you should try wedding

 

I don't think it is easy. First of all to be an expert Photographer is not an easy task. I had a DSLR camera, it was Canon 70D. I had been trying for more than 6 months but no result. So, you need to concentrate on developing your skill. I agree with GM Barsasa that you should start with wedding Photography.

 

You can choose these beautiful places and take photos free to improve skills then please shoot the other categories.

 

First of all I wanted to say if you complete photoshot in day then you needed canon DSLR and if you needed night photo then you needed NIKON DSLR. If you can collect high regulation and nice images then you can sell it in photo related sites or forums or you also can sell it in clients who are available in fiverr.

 

I can't imagine random photos that you take will ever turn in to a business. Realistically no one is going to buy the full res picture of something you found interesting to photograph. That alone isn't enough. You should buy a monkey or a parrot and hang out at heavily tourist areas and offer $10 a picture. =)
