Stock photography may be the option you are looking for. Stock photography is

• Suited for amateurs as well as professionals
• Easy to start with: you don’t need impressive gear or professional payment options.

 The current stock photography market is divided in two big camps, each with their own business model:

• Low volume, high payout per download. This is the professional stock market. Steer away from this market if you are not 100% dedicated to take high-quality stock-oriented pictures. These are the big names like Alamy or Corbis.
• High volume, low payout per download. In this market, amateur photographers can make a lot of money if they know how to take, choose, and prepare pictures.

No need to choose a stock program

Why not choose a stock program? Frankly, because you don’t need to. You can start with any program, then join other stock agencies with the same stock. Just don’t join a stock program that demands exclusivity.

A good starter program is ShutterStock, because it is fairly easy to join and they provide you with good feedback if any of your pictures is rejected. A second reason to choose ShutterStock to start with, are the payment options. Earnings as low as $75 can be transferred via PayPal directly to your bank account.
