we're gonna be talking about how you can
earn some passive income with your
photography and you don't even have to
be a real photographer but first let's
roll the intro
[Music]
[Music]
what's up ladies and gentlemen Souter
starts back with another video I'm happy
to see you all today and today we're
gonna be talking just as I mentioned
we're gonna be talking about how if you
can earn some passive income with your
photography first of all we're gonna be
talking about who you have to be to make
this sort of potential and I'm saying
potential because we're gonna learn why
potential income so you don't have to be
professional photographer you don't need
a super coolest camera in the world you
can just use your phone and most of the
phones nowadays have great cameras they
have HDR different apps to edit the
photos as well and they come into decent
resolutions in size and dynamic ranges
so don't you worry about if you're just
a fan and two enthusiasts on Instagram
posting your landscape whatever photos
bare with me
you don't need camera if you have camera
cool you can definitely use the camera
where do you have to go where do you
have to sign up where do you need to
login and where do you need to upload
your photos there is an app called you
can find it in the App Store Android
probably iPhone as well you can find it
it's called I am and it's kind of
similar to the Instagram but there's one
very well well I think it's a difference
because as far as I know you can't
upload images on Instagram via computer
if I'm mistaking now write down in the
comments but as far as I know on the
computer you can only do like and
comment maybe share some images on
Instagram but you can upload only
through your mobile device so I am app
allows you to upload images to your
phone or computer so what we're gonna do
now we're gonna jump into the high I'm
gonna show you my profile and I'm gonna
show you how to upload an image what's a
click where to click and how much to
click to actually get to some business
slowly going so we're gonna go
to the new page and we're gonna attempt
I am IEM column and it will
automatically open my profile because
obviously I have logged in and this is
my profile right here so we're gonna go
to uploading process right now if you
want to go up to the top right corner
and there should be a cloud button that
says upload click on that they can click
on the on the green button that says
sell it from computer I have my image on
desktop which I'm gonna be dragging and
dropping and this images I can actually
show your damage because I'm recording
the screen at the same time as well so
this image was taken and a loch lomond
lake with my one plus six phone in HDR
and edited in Photoshop Express app in
phone as well so if you want me to make
an phone editing picture tutorial I can
definitely do so because I whoops I feel
like I've made one but that was getting
at me so I feel like I could make a new
one so this is the picture made by phone
nothing too fancy just a smart phone so
few things on this website on the top
right corner you can see that it says
discoverability poor and you can see
that this photo is still uploading as
soon as the photo is going to be
uploaded I am is gonna be looking at the
picture the software is gonna try and
figure out what does it actually see in
the picture and it's gonna try and give
you some automatic hashtags I say
hashtags but in this website are called
tags and it's gonna be exactly the same
if you're gonna do it through the phone
you're gonna be uploading the image and
once the image is uploaded it will
generate automatic tags for example and
this one it will probably come up with
sky clouds water lake mountains nature
and stuff like that is gonna try and
help you as much as possible and there
will be a button that you can click and
automatically add all of those tags to
your photo the max
of tags are 25 and if you feel like that
I am have missed some tags because for
example it will not figure out the
picture was taken in Scotland so you can
add manually your own tags like phone
photography for example well do you want
plus 6 cos obviously the computer is not
gonna know that this picture is taking
over 1 plus 6 but maybe I want to show
it into the tag as well and maybe the
title of the lake and maybe the country
as well so my long talking I was trying
to talk as long as possible finally the
processing is done and you see here it
found 21 tags I'm not gonna read through
those tags right now I should actually
maybe make the page oh yes and there is
this button that you can click at all as
soon as we click at all this code
discoverability goes boom up so it means
people can find your photo easy easier
so we have 21 after 25 I want to add
ones there we go pops up very easily I
want to add phone photography there we
go almost 10,000 posts with that one and
I'll add one plus yes we have one point
8000 on that so sometimes this app and
website will figure out the location
based on the oops
based on the data from the phone if you
take your picture with the phone just
like this time if figured out the
location I don't think it's the right
location maybe it's somewhere around the
lake so I'm gonna leave it it's not
maybe super accurate if you want you can
always add location manually and there
you can add a little caption for example
I could say my
[Music]
visit at LeMans lake yes there we go and
a smiley face for example now you scroll
all the way down and there's a little
thick that you need to take ad to market
so this will allow your photo to go
further to be under a review to be
reviewed if it's eligible eligible
eligible eligible for I am market and I
will explain we're gonna click here post
all photos is gonna say congratulations
success go to your profile and you can
see the photo here has been uploaded if
you click on the photo you can see it is
under review so I am market is gonna do
a review of where there are any people
in the photo where there are any private
properties and if there's like houses
cars possibly even animals or humans or
models you're gonna have to get them
fill online permission that they grant
permission for you to sell this image on
I am role you're technically not selling
image you're selling a license for
someone to download this image and use
somewhere else
so I would suggest not to use any models
or houses or whatever just stick with
sunrise sunset mountains forests rivers
lakes and so on so how will you know if
your photo is eligible for being sold
for the license being sold you're gonna
eventually get an email just like this
one did iris if you get a few days ago
your photos officially on sale thanks
for uploading this photo it's been
reviewed approved and is now available
for sale on I am it may also be
distributed to our third-party partners
if so we'll let you know once it's live
on their site happy selling so the
third-party companies that are here if
you have heard one of the world's
largest photo stock image selling sites
or place markets in the world is called
Getty Images so if your photo is
exception
good or exceptionally great location or
whatever it may end up and get the
market as well which is really large and
a lot of people will be able to view
your image and there you go so why I
said it's a potential income income
because it's nothing guaranteed because
there are so many people uploading there
are so many people uploading there are
so many images to choose from that no
one says that someone's gonna pick
necessarily your photo for example I was
uploading in my phone in this app these
images for about almost eight months and
then I was like okay originally I
thought that I'm gonna use this app to
promote my youtube channel so I ended up
posting more photos there but about
seven eight months later that got kinda
bored and I kind of forgot about this
app till one day at work I received an
email that my photos license has been
sold and I ended up getting like hundred
and something dollars and I was like wow
that was cool so this is the thing that
it's not guaranteed but you're gonna be
spending so little time that it doesn't
really matter if someone buys a license
for your photo because you spend just a
little bit of time but if someone does
it's great because you spend just a
little bit of time and eventually
passively you didn't even have to work
for it or advertised or whatever
passively you're gonna get some earnings
so I'll be genuine and all what people
like people like money and I will show
you my pay up history so if you go here
to the right side and click earnings you
can see my payouts there's nothing to
pay out at the moment but if I click on
pay history you can see the dates you
can see the amounts of money that I've
earned on this website I haven't been
uploading for about a year again don't
know why I just kind of stopped so
obviously I haven't had any recent the
last one was on 12 of October and it was
only $2 but then again look I got on the
20 on October May like in September and
October in 2016 in a very short time
period I got over $100
for uploading picture in three minutes
and doing nothing at all so that is how
easy it is I think I could actually show
you the photo that has earned me the
most of the money because I think most
of these payouts are from one image and
I don't know maybe you'll like it too
let me know I'll try to find it right
now so this is the image that has earned
me the most of money this is a panorama
of vertical net images panorama of a
milky way so people have been buying
license for this image don't know I mean
I like the image maybe they made a blog
about something in a straw world or
whatever it was like okay we need a nice
picture on top of our blog so oh this is
really good one we need to get this one
let's get official license and let's use
this image so that's how it works and
that's what I'm saying it's potential
not guaranteed but then again if you
think about it
you spend just a little bit of time if
nothing happens oh well if some if
someone buys a license for your image
for the amount of time you spent great
great so this is just one way of how you
can be earning passively money with your
photography and it doesn't matter again
if you're a photographer or you use your
phone or whatever if you just like to go
on Sundays for trips to some places and
just snap some images make sure you
upload them on I am and who knows maybe
one day someone's gonna buy a license
I'm gonna use your photo who I'm happy
my microphone made a weird noise in the
first time I'm recording this because
this was a bit smoother than the first
recording yeah I did this once already
so Wow

watching make sure you check out for
more of my videos hope this was kinda
useful if you want me to do the phone
editing picture editing tutorial let me
know down in the comments below
