You can start your Stock Photography and Video journey today

If you are thinking your about starting your stock photography and video journey today this is your sign to do it. Most likely you have all that you need to start straight away.

Pretty sure you have read a lot about it and saw many videos, but you are still not sure. So this is it.

Do it and start now.

If you check all your photos on your drives, PCs, Laptops and even mobiles. You will for sure find a lot of images that you can add to micro stock agencies. Because one thing you will discover about stock photography and video, is that the majority of things can be used for stock and might have usability for others.

When I have decided to start, as you can see in these photos, I have decided to go first through all the photos I have taken for many years and get all those images that have been saved and doing nothing for me, other than bringing me memories, to work.

And these is quite a weird selection. And although they might not be the most high quality images, and although I think they might not become my best sellers, they still have potential to sell. And that is all that matters.

They are now online on my micro stock agencies portfolios, I had the work to get them online once, and no matter what they will be available for years to come and can eventually bring me some money. Instead of being forgotten on my drives.

To be clear, you can take the first step now, and that is the most important part. Because when you choose which micro stock agencies you want to work with, you will have to "apply" so they will check your images, and that process take some time. Depending on the agencies, some more than others.

That's why, if you are still on the fence, today, this moment right now, is the time for you to go and sign up. So they can accept you and so you can start uploading all those images you have there waiting.

If you don't know much about it. It is fine. You still can start, and as you go you will be learning and getting better at it. Even when it comes to your photography. I have seen and read many stories of people that became amazing photographers from not knowing anything about it, that just because they started doing stock photography.

Also, while you upload the older photos you have there already, it is a great time for you to learn more about stock photography, so when you start working on creating directly stock images, you will be a pro by the time you are done with uploading your old photos.

Quick heads-up, this is not a "get money quick" type of gig. You must have patience and like to create and also spend some time in front of the screen editing, uploading, titling and keywording all the images. That you will learn very quickly from the beginning.

If you have those skills, the photos, and the time, this is the time to do it. This is your sign to start. Don't be afraid. The worst thing that it can happen is that you revisit a lot of old memories looking and working on those old images.

Best case scenario, you add some extra money to your monthly earnings.

I hope this information was helpful and me sharing this "less than perfect" and weird photos, will help you get motivated to start your own journey in Stock Photography and Video.
