Where to Sell Wildlife Photos?
The digital camera has made amateur photographers out of millions of people, and some want to go a step further by making at least a little money back on the cost of the camera. One way is wildlife and nature photography, leaving the amateur wondering where to sell his wildlife photos.
-
Calendars
-
Sell wildlife photos to local businesses, churches and other organizations that put out calendars each year. Consider making your own calendar and selling it around the end of the year.
Postcards
-
Visit local gift shops and work a deal with them to make your wildlife photos into postcards. Offer them a percentage of the revenue. Make small, normal-sized postcards as well as large and odd-shaped ones to draw attention to them.
-
Framed Keepsakes
-
Photograph local natural landmarks, frame them and sell them to local gift shops. Consider visiting local parks and photographing visitors with their friends and family, then selling them the photos, framed.
Phone Books
-
Contact local telephone companies and offer to sell your wildlife photos for use as phone book covers. Use photos taken within the calling area covered by the company to sweeten the deal. Sell the idea by saying it will make the company appear more dedicated to the community.
Magazines and Newspapers
-
Speak to representatives at local newspapers and magazines and offer to sell them your wildlife photos. Contact local magazines linked with hunting, fishing or wildlife.
Children's Books
-
Photograph wildlife as they eat or play and use the photos to compile a book. Write captions to form a short story and sell the book to gift shops and local bookstores.
World Wide Web
-
Research websites to find legitimate sites that offer to pay for your wildlife photos. They'll charge a fee to sell your service, but this might end up being a more profitable place to see your wildlife photos than any other.
