    Hi guys,

    I am a hobbyist photographer. I’ve recently won honorable mentions from Monovision awards on my long expo b&w photo series. Also, I’ve won two awards from IPA in both cityscape series and night photography in pro category. I would like to start to earn money on photography but I’ve no idea what I should do. I’ve also an insta account that has more than 30k followers and very good engagement. What should will be next? Any idea?

    Thanks!

    Thanks. Is it usable for non-portrait photographers?

    I suspect your avenues of revenue are either commissions or sales (stock or print), so you'll want to find education focused on those things. Fstoppers - Making Real Money (or something of the sort) might be applicable, as well as John Harrington's Better Business Practices For Photographers.

    The hardcopy book photographers market 2019 should be out soon if not already, 300+ pages of places to sell and license photos
