How do I go about getting my photos of NASCAR drivers and my travel photos published?

photogal asked:


I have great close up candid photos of NASCAR drivers Kasey Kahne, Tony Stewart, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Carl Edwards, Kevin Harvick, and drivers from IRL, Anthony Foyt, AJ Foyt and others. I also have travel photos, aerials over Sedona, landscapes, waterfalls, lighthouses and more. I’m trying to make a living as a photographer. How do I get started?

   To market the NECKCAR photos, you should probably get in touch with Cameras In Action (CIA), Getty Images, or LAT photo because NECKCAR’s licensing group is very strict.

   As far as the EARL stuff goes, just burn it. Most people who like race photos could care less about such an aberration (Racer magazine photoshopped a Getty image without permission a year or two ago..It showed “full” grandstands at an IRL event).

   The travel photos should be much easier to market since there is no licensing agreement in place for many landmarks, and many places can be shot from different angles with varying results.

   Best of luck with your pursuits…The photojournalism game is not the easiest to make a living at, but if you are good you will get published somewhere.
