Stock photography consists of existing photographs that can be licensed for specific uses. Publishers, advertising agencies, graphic artists, and others use stock photography to fulfill the needs of their creative assignments. A customer who uses stock photography instead of hiring a photographer can save time and money, but can also sacrifice creative control.

There are many services where you can sell your own photos. Photography you want to sell through these services need to be quality, original and owned by you (you take a photo). If your photo is good enough, then it can be sold good.
