Wow, I’m going to be that guy, this whole post is a joke. I can’t help it as I do actually shoot for a living(not stock). You don’t have an answer because she has simply posted a few galleries of whatever stuff she has photographed and called herself a professional and posted an ama. The best selling shot all time..$63.

Edit: 1st gold, thanks kind stranger!

I had to scroll way down to find that the highest grossing picture is $60 something bucks. This is basically a hobby that has netted a little extra cash. Nothing remotely close to a full time professional. Some advice may be sound but the whole post sure read different to me. I have a hard time caring about advice from a “professional” that has barely made a thousand dollars.

It’s certainly a challenge. I’m in the portrait business. That, weddings and commercial is the only real place to still do it with the very few exceptions. The few who do landscape stuff are both fantastic photographers and even better marketers.

Took a while to find this, I was wondering the same. I’m sure unintentional but the whole post came off to me like this is your full time job. Perhaps I’m just dense

Maybe I wasn't clear. If you could make some money of the work you are producing, you could use that to find more of your own shoots for charities in need. They would obviously receive the images as well and also some added recognition. I was not starting out with the premise that money is the goal but that if you could make some you could provide more of your work to other projects in need. As is often the case, money is for any well intentioned charity project
