Best Ways To Make Money Selling Photography:

What do I need to know to sell my photographs?

What do I need to know to sell my photography?I am looking to start selling my photography. I am making a website, and I am also going to sell my photos off of a website called Etsy.com. What I need to know is, do I need to copy wright my photos? If so, how do I do that, and do I have to copy wright each photo individually? If I start selling photos, does that disqualify me from amateur contests? Also, do I need any type of license to sell photography? Thanks for help!

1. Copyright is automatic. You do need put the copyright notice on each print however. Etsy.com is a nice website, however you get to figure out how to pack and ship your images. Look at a site called Smugmug. They host your images and when people buy a print, they fulfill the order and the images are shipped directly to the buyer. They collect the money, print the photo and ship it. No muss no fuss.
