Photo Adventures and Cash Nearby

There are many ways to enjoy your photography and create income opportunities for yourself without ever straying far from home.

If fact, on photo selling website like iStockphoto and Dreamstime, food pictures are one of the most needed photos.

Imagine, taking a photo of your spaghetti and selling it over and over again for profit!

But if you have the call to get outdoors and do some walking after your big meal (which is very healthy indeed) there are many places close to home where you can find great photo and cash making opportunities.

Historic places, high schools, churches, local or state parks, main street shops, farms, theaters, sporting events, festivals, flea markets, farmers market, dog park, industrial zones, waterways, city scapes, reflections, art museum, science museum, local business meetings or conferences, college campus, train station, airport, your kitchen, your workshop, your sewing room.

Wherever people create life-long special memories is a great place to start.

People get married in churches. Baptize their babies there. They often want photos of the church.

Flea and farmer’s markets can offer some great fruit and veggie photos (think food). Please be sure to ask the vendor if it would be alright if you take a few photos of his lovely goods. It’s polite. You can offer to send him or her some copies for them to use as a gesture of goodwill.
