How to sell photography?

One of the replies presumes your work is rubbish, and that making money from photography is a bad thing.

I'm here to tell you that none of us know your experience level or how good you might be at photography.

Where I live, Farmers Markets are stacked with people selling goods that they have made. These goods include artwork, photographs jewelry, shirts, rugs, and much more. The "farmers" part of it still exists, too. The same vendors show up repeatedly and I know for a fact that photos sell at these venues.

They must be displayed with quality processing, variety of natural subjects, matted, and enough inventory in multiple sizes. Price your work fairly and expect people to barter. It's your choice to give in or not. It will cost you money to prepare and may take a while to break even and then make a profit.

I can't speak for online sales.

Who knows? Maybe you are one of the talented ones.

Yes, yes, however much they are willing to pay.

Those are the answers to the three questions.

To expand.

Selling prints at markets can be quite lucrative (after you take into account your initial investment of hundreds of £/$ for a stock of various sized prints, frames etc etc. However as with anything the shots will only sell if they are good enough and/or what people actually want to buy.

There are loads of places on line. Depends on what you class as "successful". You can sell prints, RM or RF images or any combination. Do your research.

Magazines pay anything from a few quid/bucks through to thousands depending on what the shot is, the type of magazine, whether commissioned or spec. etc etc./

Do a bit of research as there is a heck of a lot more than just taking some snaps and putting them up for sale (asking on here is not proper research).

Will people buy prints at farmer's markets? Yes if they are priced right and are good enough

Are there any successful places to sell them online? yes - find them with google

How much will magazines pay? anywhere from zero to $1million - depending on the subject and the quality.

Only one way to find out...try it!

Put some prints up for sale at a market and see what happens. You will have to frame them first though.

Also, send suitable photos to magazines and see if they are interested. Beware that they probably WONT want them as there are millions of photos all around the world these days and they pick only the best. A local magazine would be best where you can take local pictures suitable for the area. Landscapes and events for instance.

Only if someone like your work well enough to hang it on their walls.

Another 'punter' that's more interested in making money than photography...

If you are good enough people will pay...do you like parting with your own hard earned cash for 'rubbish'..?

If you want to sell photographs...or be paid for supplying images...then the best direction to go is education...take an evening or weekend class in photography and see where it takes you...

The best option is to look for sponsors or put up pamphlets everywhere possible. Look out for public parks and auditoriums where you can speak to the person concerned there and arrange for an exhibition . That I think is the best option to sell your photography . Anyways it all depends on the quality and depth of your photos and skill of your talent.
