Capture Photos With Your Phone And Earn Up To $1000 By Selling Them

Everyone has a cell phone and an obsession with taking pictures as well. Open social media - you can see the flood of pictures and videos. People are so obsessed with taking pictures. It might make them feel good. People capture not only self-photos - many people love to capture landscapes, to do food photography and street photography, etc. Then why don't you allow your obsession to make some money for you? Yes, I am going to tell you about the sites where you can sell your pictures and earn $35 per picture or even more.

#1. Shutterstock Contributor

Shutterstock contributor is a platform that welcomes all people who are good at photography. They welcome you to share high-quality pictures, videos, illustrations, and vectors. You can join their contributor community just with an email and password. Go to the website, create your contributor account and start uploading pictures right after joining.

You'll submit pictures - their team will review the pictures and will upload them to your portfolio to attract clients. The more the clients purchase your pictures and more you'll make money. A single picture could be sold multiple times. So you can earn lots of money even from a single picture.

#2. Getty Images

Getty Image is a second site where you can sell your photos to earn lots of money. In the stock image industry - Getty image is one of the most popular names. In over 200 countries, Getty Image has 1.5 million customers and a large audience around the world. To join the Gett Images you have to fill out their application form by downloading Getty Image's official app.

You will get a 15% to 20% commission from Getty Images through royalty-free photos. You can submit images, diagrams, videos, and vectors - but all should be original. To contribute to Getty Images you should be must 18. You can earn up to $300 and $500 after your content is accepted by Getty Image.

#3. Alamy

Alamy is another name of the trust - where you can start selling your stock photos right after joining. You are not going to face any complicated rules here. Although Alamy is less popular than Shutterstock And Adobe Stock; thus, you might have less customer engagement. Till now Alamy has $180 million payouts to their contributors.

#4. Adobe Stock

You might be familiar with Adobe stock because it is a very renowned name photography industry. It is one of the most popular software for photo editing.

Furthermore, any pictures you upload to the marketplace are easily accessible in other Adobe products. This increases the visibility of your work. After all, it is instantly accessible from within their Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop, or Illustrator software.

The freedom you are given when you start selling stock photos on Adobe Stock is incredible. You can even sell your photos elsewhere since Adobe Stock does not require that you give them exclusive selling rights. And above all, profits are usually 33%. If you think what you have as it takes as a photographer, don't hold back. It's time to turn your passion into profit.

#5. Stocksy

Although Stocksy was founded back in 2013, they aren't that well-known when compared to popular alternatives such as Shutterstock– but we think you should consider them. In my opinion, yes - you definitely should. They have a serious vetting process in place for their photographers which means that your chances of being accepted aren't that high, but if you do this puts you at an advantage. Wouldn't you rather be a part of a stock photography network that prides itself on quality rather than just accepting every application they get?

Final Thought:

$1000 is an estimated or an average digit that I have mentioned in the Title. You are not limited to this - you might be less or more based on content and selling. You might earn $500 per picture if your single photo is sold multiple times. However, you will not get $1000 right after joining the sites. Of course, you have to work on the sites to attract customers. What I think is, that working on these sites is not much difficult. You just need to click photos from your cell phone and submit them to the site - they will review the content. After that, your content will be accepted or might be subjected to modification. If you are good at clicking high-quality photos - you should try your luck there.

Good Luck!
