Stock Photography and money making

Whether you’re into travel photography or simply enjoy taking pictures of your favorite baked goods, there’s money to be made in the stock photography scene. With sites like iStock and Dreamstime accepting high-quality amateur pics and handling all of the marketing and sales transactions for you, this passive income option requires most of the work to be done up front. After that, you can sit back and enjoy the sales revenue. Obviously, there’s a bit more to it than that, and certain types of pictures sell better than others. But if you have a high quality camera and an artistic eye, chances are you can eventually make a decent side income from stock photography. It’s definitely a numbers game, so although you may get lucky and have one or two images that sell repeatedly, your odds are better with a high number of pictures spread across a variety of stock sites.
