This month Bart chats with Mark Pouley about making a start on selling some of your work. Not going pro, but selling enough to approach breaking even and having photography be a financially neutral hobby.

Tips form Mark
- Search for “call for artists” in your area
- Join a local artists guild or group - a great source of advice and wisdom
- Keep an eye out for festivals and things like that in your area
- Your portfolio should be ‘the cream’ of your work, small, and indicative of what you do
- Get a portfolio review from a trusted expert who can be honest with you
