Question: How much would my photos be worth!?
I'm looking into selling some of my photographs but I don't know how much to price them at!. With & without matte framing prices would be very much appreciated!. Their signed for copyright reasons, not because I think I'm some pro (yes I get messages like that)

If you're taking photos of other people's pets for them, you will make more than trying to sell to a niche group of pet lovers who may want a photos of a similar pet!. The other two photos are a bit more artsy and could be sold if to the right type of client!. I would suggest figuring up how much it would cost for you to mat and frame (I do matting and framing of my photography, so I know this can often factor heavily in cost)!. Once you figure this out, you can then decide how much the photo is worth to you on top of that!. You should visit stores, galleries or find art festivals to compare cost!. Talk shop w/ the people!.!.!.!.find out how well their work sells at the cost!. This will give you ideas!.

I would also suggest selling online!. There are a number of sites you can submit work to: istockphoto!.com is one!. People purchase the rights to use photos and you get a piece of the pie!. They also have list of stuff that's in demand to give you topics!. It's hard to make money on photos unless you're really willing to put some time into it!. When someone hires you to photograph, you're taking photos they want!. When you take photos you like, you're forced to sell your vision!.!.!.it's not as easy!. It is very rewarding though :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

i don't think they are salable, but that is my own opinion, please don't take offense, as i don't think most of my photographs are salable and my opinion of what is salable of my work will change in a few months!.
an 11" x17" with mat i price around $200 with frame and glass also: $250
just the print $150!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Impossible to say, there is nothing there that I would pay for or even have any interest in, not meaning any offense!. If you do find someone who would be interested in purchasing these pictures I really don't think there is anything so unique that would fetch a high price!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Ok so if these aren't the photos that you would be selling than why are you asking us to look at them to see how much they would be worth!? It makes no sense really, sorry!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

They may sell as stock photos!.!.!.!.!.but you're looking at little to no money!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
