I have started trying stock photography and have about 40 downloads so far over four platforms. Not enough to get paid yet but it was a thrill that someone actually paid money for a picture that I took. That said, what was REALLY A THRILL was scrolling through the Google news feed one morning and seeing one of my pictures as the banner of a news head line complete with a credit for it. The was enough to keep my enthusiasm up. And yes, I'm still talking about it.
I have been checking many videos to gather knowledge about stock photography and videos. You explained it in much details. Wish to know more about indoor photography ideas from you.
Good morning! :) I'm going to be doing some more video's in the rest of the year that's focusing on doing more stock photography. I'm just taking a short break at the moment because we have a LOT happening here at home that I need to focus on. But my next video is going to be about getting photo's for stock photography and will all be behind-the-scenes of how I do it from planning to taking them. I hope it will be helpful!
Some other potential streams are product photography for other artisans that have small businesses selling their creations. Alternatively, giving lessons on how those artisans could improve their own product photography. Similarly, action photography of local children playing sports; pet photography for local residents; food photography for local restaurants. These are things that can be done close to home.
Those are great suggestions - and especially if they're local businesses you know, they will probably be more willing to work around you (ie: childcare hours, etc). And as a parent, I'm down at the fields anyway watching the kids for sports, so I do often take my camera with me too! lol.

@redandthewolfphotography So glad to hear from you...I understand 🙌 🙏 take care. Yes, I will definitely wait for you to upload the next videos 😊
major props. This is the first time I've ever seen a channel with more views on multiple single videos than the total subscribers. I'm in!
Thanks! :) I'm grateful for my channel growing so well and for all the neat people I meet in the comments section.
