Hello...I am wondering how to sell some photographs that I have taken, and I thought getting an account here would be a good way of figuring that out, so...I did.
My girlfriend and I are both amateur photographers, and have become enraptured with the art as a hobby. She has done senior pictures for a friend, and I have done a good deal of scenery photography (up in good ol' Minnesota). We both also do a lot of abstract-ish photography.
So...to get back to the question...how could we go about making some money off these? Doing so would make it more easy to spend more time doing it and obtain more equipment (right now we both share a digital camera, a Canon Powershot S3IS). We're not quite sure where to start... I thought about contacting some businesses and such things who may buy my work (i.e. the Minnesota magazine) but I am not quite sure how to do it.
The question of how to sell the abstract photography is even more difficult, because I have no idea who to market them toward.
Since we are both just amateurs, we are not looking to make it into a business-like situation, at least not yet. So, I would like to know who I should contact or what I should do to sell, without spending much money on advertising or anything.
Oh, and I can post some of our work later, if it helps.
