Ten Ways to Make Money with Your Digital Camera

It seems like everyone has a digital camera today. Why wouldn't people have one? Digital cameras come in all shapes, sizes, colors and price range. They come in such forms as the popular camera phone, to the tiny camera that hangs
 from a key chain to the expensive model that can do so many things that even most owners can not perform the tasks, without the manual. With so many people having them, many, would like to imagine that they are great photographs. Many more may even wish to make money with their camera.

Make money. Now that is an idea we all like. Here are few suggestions.

1. Set up at a mall or a flea market (yes, you probably will have to pay a fee) and offer to take pictures of passerby's for free. This would help if you have a handy computer and or printer handy.

2. Talk to real estate agents about taking photos of the current houses they are selling for them. Some may appreciate not having to do this themselves. You could even talk to them about taking pictures of the inside of the homes and creating a brochure of each. You should begin by making a mock up of your own home, to show them just how good you are.

3. Talk to auctioneers and see if they need any pictures taken of objects that will be offered in their upcoming auctions. Again, you could talk about the brochure idea.

4. Are you also good at words? Then you could become really creative and begin creating your own greeting cards. These could be sold at flea markets and the like. If you think you are talented enough, you could even try to sell your designs to local stores or even some greeting cards companies, themselves.

5. Check out the local car shows. Take along some prints of your work and then see if you can line up any jobs taking pictures of the cars for the owners. Again, show any brochures you have created.

6. Does your town hosts a lot of parades or festivals? Does it have many historic locations? You could create some postcards covering such events and things. These should sell well at your next local festival.

7. Love pets? Offer to take pictures of Fido and Tiger for people.

Great tips! My Mom is in real estate and it amazes me, and her, how many people do not take pics or enough of them and often are passed up as a result.

Good tips. Though I thought the article was going to be telling about where online to submit photos for pay. I hadn't though of some of these!
