Photography is a pastime that’s part hobby and part artwork. If the photos that you are taking gravitate more toward art, it’s entirely possible that you’ll be able to make some money with this hobby.
There are several ways to monetize photography. A number of major websites such as Flickr and Shutterstock provide photos to users across the web. You can earn some money by setting up an account on those sites and adding your photos to sell to potential clients.
Still another way is to market your work directly to actual clients. Professional photographers are quite expensive, so you may be able to sell your services as a discount alternative for people who need photos for graduations, weddings and other events
GF¢ reader Joni of JSF Photography shared how her hobby went from a hobby to making money: “My hobby started when I became a mom, almost 6 years ago and bought my first DSLR camera. My love for taking pictures of my babies turned into a love for capturing memories for my friends and their families.
From there, my hobby became a small business. It’s still very small and growing very slowly, but I love taking pictures and capturing a sweet moment for people that will last a lifetime.”
