- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
really making money with photography is hard if you try to sell your arty pictures as far as i understand.
if however you do photography on events (weddings, and others), then you can earn some, but most of the time not get rich. and that sort of event-photography is more or less a full time job I would guess.
Anyway, the only few occasions when any of my images where used professionally (magazine, websites, ...) I did not really earn money with it as it was for non-commercial organisations or other reasons preventing me to get rich
Also, those shots were my crappiest images usually, but they accidentally met the needs This tells you that to earn money it is often not about composition, light and all that, ... sad but true. I guess many (potential) customers cannot tell the difference between a technically good or bad image, not to speak of the ignorance regarding the art of good composition and all that.
