For those who are fed up with making pennies from their photography.

Mainly, I sell my photographic prints online. For many years, I sold my prints via shows, exhibitions, and fairs. However, for the last five years, thanks to personal circumstances, I have had to concentrate on selling my work via the internet.

It isn’t easy, but then nothing ever is.

I dabbled with stock photo sites, one of which charged anything from $0.01 for a download up to $50. not a great source of income, but a trickle.

PicFair, again, dribs and drabs, but not much at all.

He’d been on the site for many years. He is super talented and does well with his sales there. About six months ago, he suggested I put up my prices. I averaged around a £20 commission on each sale. Currently, my 600 images don’t sell all that often, but £20–25 felt good compared to the pennies on the other sites.
