Since getting into photography I have always wanted to sell my photos. For a while I dabbled in portrait photography but quickly realized that wasn't the route I wanted to take. I thought it would be easy and quick money. Boy, I could not have been more wrong.
Adding my photos to Etsy has been something I have been doing on and off for the past few years. I have not been as successful as I had thought I would be. I just assumed I would add photos to my shop, people would see them and love them, and buy them. I mean, that would be the easiest and most comfortable way, right?
I quickly realized I needed to whore myself out advertise and sell my works myself. I wasn't ready to yet so I kept putting it off and putting it off - I doubt it had anything do with my shy, Type B nature {insert sarcastic look here}. It was not until recently that I started to really research and consume any information on how to sell on Etsy. I know I still have loads and loads and LOADS to learn but I am pretty confident in where I am starting.
So, today, I would like to share with all of you - my fabulous and wonderfully beautiful readers - what I have added so far.
"Pittsburgh in the Fog" | 8x10 print available at $15.
"Sunflower" | 8x10 print available for $20.
"Beach Sparkle" | available upon request, starting at $15.
"Sunlit Vineyard" | available upon request, starting $20.
Like I said, I still have so much to learn. Pricing? Descriptions? Advertising? Shipping? So much. I am all ears, y'all! Do you have any suggestions on books or online resources I can turn to to help?
Do you have an Etsy shop?
What do you look for when purchasing photography?
