Marketing Fine Art Photographs
I don’t often recommend books, but one I have really enjoyed reading and also found very informative is Alain Briot’s Marketing Fine Art Photography. He gives lots of good advice about what sort of photographs sell, where to sell them and how to go about marketing prints of your work.
Making money from selling prints yourself isn’t easy, but it is very rewarding to get the personal satisfaction from someone deciding that your image would look good on their wall. I have a couple of images in an exhibition in Morgantown this month and have my fingers crossed that someone will buy one of them, so I guess I have the “bug.”

Thanks for the reccomendation. I must confess that I don’t even know what fine arts are, though sometimes I see a photo on someone’s website and think to myself, this must be it. I am thinking about what to do with my somewhat better pictures that look more artistic, but for the moment I am only collecting them and holding them from stock.
I guess Fine Art is an image that really gets the intended message of the photographer across in a way that keeps the viewer interested to explore it, and interested enough to think that it would be nice to hang on a wall! I’m sure there is a better definition!
