I have never done stock photography, but if you do a search for "sell stock photography" there are a lot of sites there.

I have some photos framed and matted hanging at a local coffee bar and bookstore. I get phone calls from people every now and then asking to buy a matted and framed pricture that they had seen. I make my own frames so i make a pretty good chunk from it when I do actually sell one.

There are various ways to do it. If you want to enter contests you can check out the various photography magazines on the stands and see when they're running contests. There are also a few sites around that have photo contest where the prize is something like 100.00 bucks. I think one of them is called photo a day or something like that.

Then there are various on-line stock agencies where you don't have to be a professional to upload your photos and sell them. At first the $$ they pay you per download doesn't seem like a lot-but if you have good photos and lots of them the $$ per download really adds up.

I personally use

Shutterstock

and

BigStockPhoto

And I'm happy with both of them. The images are royalty free and the $$ from both adds up, plus they're non exclusive so you can upload the same images to both places or as many on-line places as you can join.

Also see the website for your camera maker. Often times they run photo contests for their customers and give a small prize or bragging rights. Like Kodak's winners get their pic on that giant screen in Times Sq. And many different specialized mags also run contests from time to time so take an afternoon and check out the racks at Borders.

Thanks so much. I ahve not had time to get this done yet but hope to with in the next week.
Have a great day!
