Freelance photography submissions? |
My teenage son has a great eye for photography, especially sports photography. He has volunteered for several years to take pictures for the local paper. Many times his photos are on the front page. Are there websites that accept freelance photos and will pay for them? Any magazines that you know of? He has a great Pentax digial SLR and really puts it ot good use. There's a great online artists market where he can display and sell his art: http://www.etsy.com/ It's free to join and 20 cents to list an item for 6 months, they don't make any money until your item sells and they only collect like 3% of what you make....My bill from them last month was about $2 :) Tell your son good luck with his art & don't stop doing what you love!!! There is an excellent book called "2007 Photographers Market". It's basically a list of places that are looking for photos. It gives info about them, what they are looking for, how much they pay on average, and contact info. Good luck! I recommand you a Free Online Photography Course http://www.photography-tutorial.info/... it include ten lessons on Photography. Lesson 1: Composition And Impact - It's A Beautiful Photograph, But Do You Know WHY It's Beautiful? Lesson Two: Aperture And Shutter Speed - How They Work Together Lesson 3: The lens - choosing camera optics. Lesson 4: ISO, Grain, Transparency vs. Negative, Specialty Films Lesson 5: Fun Effects - Camera Filters, Soft Focus, Zooming And Panning Lesson 6: Landscape, Nature and Travel Photography Lesson 7: Portraits And Studio Lighting Lesson 8: Studio Lighting - Still Life and Product Photography Lesson 9: Tying It All Together Lesson 10: Special Requests http://www.photography-tutorial.info/... good luck ! Forget selling images online. Tell him to go to the local paper and tell them his images are now *for sale*. If they say no, put a collection of his pix on a CD and have him truck them around to other newspapers. If he's good and persistent someone will bite. Eventually. |
