You could put up adverts that you can make yourself in shops and local places or the bigger towns. Good time of year for that. One of my sisters used to do that and she just made her own wee posters with one of her paintings as an example and her telephone number. Try that and see.

Depending on the genre of the photos and the skill, sell them on ebay.  People are always looking for interesting photos and paintings and unknown artist/photog stuff there.

I modeled in my younger days, and the first thing you will need is a good portfolio. About 10 pictures-8x10 in size-some head shots, some full body. Some in  color and some in black & white. You can go to various aagencies and show them around-trust me, there is a lot of pounding the pavement and a lot of rejections. However, there's always that chance of getting small jobs along the way and perhaps being discovered. Beware of any so called agency that wants money up front-don't do it. If an agency wishes to sign you, and it is legitimate, they will take out a percentage of your pay for their fee. Good luck1

Drow,\n\nYou have a spiritual conflict and misaligned ethics.\n\nYou need to decide if you do what you do for the ART of the matter or for making MONEY.\n\nThe greatest artists NEVER became wealthy until near the end of their lives.   \n\nThe wealthiest artists NEVER became artistic until near the end of their lives.\n\nThese are the two extremes on the spectrum of which you must choose your own place.\n\nRemember the golden rule: He who has the gold makes the rules.   You should sell out one of your ideas to raise basic capital so you can then open your own gallery which would then enable you to market other artists in a similar predicament.

I used to model for a nude painting class, I charged $50 an hour then but they needed more time.  So I would probably say atleast $200 an hour or $10 per picture.  I don't think I would want to pose in a sexually explicit way just because it may get on the web or something.  Best Wishes

Are you asking if you can make money knowing photoshop? If this is it, the answer is yes. Actually, you can make money in just about anything you want - if you market yourself right.\n\nI'm a travel photographer and I edit all my photographs in photoshop. I have 3 other photo editing programs as well - but photoshop is the one that most photographers use. \n\nOther uses are to make brochures or do presentations, however, powerpoint is good for presentations.\n\nIt takes some learning, but photoshop is a good program. If I didn't answer your question the right way let me know and I'll try to help more. My direct e-mail is digital.shutterbug@yahoo.com.

You know what I'd do?  Call the talent agencies and ask them who's the best photographer and who has the best recording studio.  Questions, like this, will ferret out who knows their stuff and who doesn't.  Call them all!  Call every talent agency in the city and the suburbs, as well.  This will give you a consensus from which to work.  Next, I would do some creative loitering.  The agencies that came out on top of your poll should be visited by you.  Not in the office, but outside.  They are usually incredibly busy so set aside a little time to talk with the folks coming in and out.  They'll answer any questions you have.  Now, you have some real groundwork completed and have, probably, a better handle on your city's market than most of your competition.  Next, call the agencies back...yes, everyone of them.  Ask them who the best headshot photographer in town is.  Later that day, call them and ask them who produces the best commercials - what studio gets all the best work?  Schedule a sitting with that #1 photographer and ask for a half hour at the studio polled to be the best.  Explain to the studio that you need a half hour for a demo tape.  That's easy money for them.  Tape some commercials off the TV that you enjoy and feel you could do a good job with.  Copy down script and rehearse until your appointment date.  Now, you have a demo tape from the number 1 studio in your city and a headshot from the industry leading photographer.  This is going to take some money and some time, but you're worth it - aren't you.  The answer had better be yes.  Call the top 5 talent agencies in the surrounding area, according to your polling results.  You are armed to the teeth with only the best product, according to them, themselves, afterall, they did the ratings work for you.  Good luck.  You are now setup to be hired for modeling, acting, and voicework.

You take things you already know for granted. If you have a hobby you're probably not the only person in the world with that interest. Write out detailed instructions. VERY detailed. Then place an ad on a website or in a magazine or newspaper offering copies of instructions for a nominal fee. In a magazine with a "readership" of 6 million if even 1% pays you $10.00 you'll have some money.
