[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]During my travels across Central America I met a humble gentleman named David Carmona. Looking into his eyes, there was a certain sparkle nested deep inside, as if he could see wonders that most could not. It did not take long to realize he was an up and coming photographer, traveling the world while sharing his particular view of the world\u2019s beauties.<\/p>\n

He was the first man to prove to me that it\u2019s very possible to travel as a full-time photographer.<\/strong> After interviewing him, as well as a few others currently traveling as photographers, I came up with a comprehensive list of ways that will help you learn how to travel as a photographer. It is my hope that this will help aspiring photographers like yourself go out and grow your photography career through travel.<\/p>\n

<\/div>[vc_column_text]David Carmona made his first break in an ingenious way. He was in Brisbane Australia when he came up with the idea of offering professional photography services to couples and friend groups on the beach. He would sell his pictures for $2 a piece, and send them via email. The generosity of Australians allowed him to make a very decent wage from it working only on the weekends.<\/p>\n

Goes to show that thinking outside the box can go a long way![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Sell Images to Postcard Companies” use_theme_fonts=”yes”]

<\/div>[vc_column_text]Selling images to companies like Hallmark can be a great way to make extra revenue. Every year these companies need thousands of pictures, and once you are in the system selling more images becomes easier.<\/p>\n

At first you may feel uncomfortable approaching random stores to have them sell your pictures, but that’s part of the thrill! Just think, what’s the worst that can happen? The benefit of having someone sell your postcard largely outweighs the few no’s you will get along the way.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
