Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
From a journalistic point of view, the safest way for you to know you will be paid for your work is to contact a magazine or newspaper, tell them what you are planning to do and set up an agreement about you providing photos to their requirements!. It may be worth your while to have an agreement with different magazines / newspapers so that you can focus on what photos will be worthwhile taking!.
More interesting to magazine and newspapers may be if you are able to provide some "editorial" text with it, i!.e!. interesting facts about the country you are visiting and taking photos in, so you need to do your research about the countries you're visiting!.!.!.

Payment may not happen before you go on a trip, but on production of photos (and possibly text), so you may need to save up to ensure you can make these trips on your own account!.

If you take photographs only you could contact press agencies, e!.g!. Reuters, or photographic agents, TV stations or get yourself an agent who will find an outlet for your photos!. Agents will charge for their services though!.!.!.

Yes there are!. Some photographers are those who shoot for National Geographic and like magazines!. Some other photographers do it for themselves and submit their work into magazines, then get paid!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
