One thing as a photographer that I have been doing lately is putting my photos on Adobe Stock.  By putting my photos on stock websites I’m hoping to earn some extra income and gain even more exposure as an artist. Here are a few reasons why it was important for me to consider putting my photos on stock websites:

I’m hoping to get increased visibility as a photographer.  In putting my photos on stock websites, they become available to a much larger audience. This can help me gain exposure for my work and potentially lead to new opportunities.

I’m looking to make passive income money and stock photography can be a great way to earn passive income. Once I upload my photos to a stock website, they can continue to generate income for me over time without any additional effort on my part.

This also can help with a diversification of income as a photographer.  I’ve made a lot of my income as a photographer doing business headshots, but this is a way to help reduce my reliance on a single source of income (such as headshot or event photography) and create a more stable and sustainable business model.

By taking stock photos I’m hoping gain more clients.  Stock photography is often used by businesses and individuals who need high-quality images for a variety of purposes, including marketing materials, websites, and social media. By putting my photos on stock websites, I’m making my work available to potential clients who might need a photographer for things other than stock photos.

Overall, putting my photos on stock websites can be a great way to expand my audience, generate passive income, and diversify my income streams as a photographer.
