Has anyone ventured outside the regular uploading images, and tried selling your work in galleries?
I just began. And although I have less than 2 years experience as a photographer, I was accepted
in a gallery already. Below are four images I have begun with in one gallery, with an opening sometime in March.

I'm also submitting in another gallery, different images, but I'm still waiting to hear from them.
Of course, if they sell the gallery gets 40% off the top. But I name my own price.

Another way to sell images. All of the above are 16X24 except 1 is 5X15 (the trees)
Each of the big ones will sell for $500 The cost of framing and matting cost me $250.

Just experimenting.

I wouldn't expect the first two to actually sell because they aren't really gallery type pieces (I've bought a lot of artwork from galleries over the years). Still, congrats on getting an exhibition because that in and of itself is an achievement.

Quite simply, I walked into a galleryand told them I was a local photograher and asked if they would be interested
in showing some of my work. I took the approach, I was doing them a favor rather than them doing me a favor.

Next I showed them my website. They liked what they saw and then asked for prints. I told them to pick out which
images they would like to see in prints. They did, I brought some 8x12's in, they like them, and said they would show them.
I had them printed in a professional photo lab 16x24 and now they're being framed and matted.

Thats it!
