With the popularity of high end mobile phones, a lot of people tend to believe that photography is pretty dead but that's not true.
Photography is still profitable, but success requires adapting to demand. Consider these high-paying niches:
Weddings and events – Reliable income with premium rates.
Photojournalism – Sell images to news outlets.
Fashion photography – Work with brands and magazines.
Well, don't just wait for clients, start selling your photographs as well on stock photo sites like Shutterstock and Adobe Stock.
