Earning money as a digital photographer is easier than you think. There are many different ways to make money with digital photography and here are 5 ways to get started:

1. – Stock photography sale

It sounds more difficult than it is. Simply put, take some of your best photos and submit them to some well-known stock photography sites. They’re pretty easy to find just by searching for “stock photography” on Google. The sites will then review the photos and if approved, you will be paid $1 – 2 each time your photo is used.

2.- Screensaver

Making money as a digital photographer with screen savers involves a lot more than people realize. Using a theme, take a series of photos and then make a screen saver. There are plenty of screensaver sites you can submit to, and if the photos are good, they’ll do just fine. You might consider selling the screen protectors on eBay.

3. – eBay sellers

Speaking of eBay, this is a great source of business. Set up a local eBay item photography service. People who sell on eBay often use poor quality photos of the images they sell over and over again.

4.- Wedding photographer

I have a friend who is doing this. He started out taking wedding photos of people as a hobby and now it’s a big business for him. He is making a lot of money as a digital photographer. The trick is to get a reputable name in wedding photography, provide a good quality product, and have an equally credible website to promote yourself.

5.- Restaurant photographer

Restaurants will often need photos of both their locations and their dishes for menus and websites. Designers who work with restaurants are always looking for photographers. Once you get a good reputation with a designer, you can freelance. Or you can work directly with the restaurants. This could lead to wedding jobs having their wedding reception at the restaurant. Restaurants are a great source of work to earn money as a digital photographer.

These are just a few of the many profitable ideas you can consider to start making money as a digital photographer. I work part time for extra money or I work full time, working for myself or for someone else. There are many options for you.
