However this is a literal drop in the bucket of ideas about ways to make money with your digital camera.
*Newborn and/or baby photo service - yes, there are lots of baby photographers out there, but there are so many babies.
Many parents of babies, especially newborns are some of the busiest people on the planet.
What you have to do is find a way to get in front of them with your services.
Make certain you let them know that you will be available at their convenience.
This will set you apart from the other "baby photos".
Then be able to propose some unique poses that include both parents.
This is also something that most others do not do.
Both parents with the child will be a very attractive offer.
Have some samples to show them to build their confidence in your skills.
Pictures of newborns when they arrive home is another way to get your prospective clients excited about what you have to offer.
* Pet photos - Again, this in and of itself is not unique.
What you want to do is have a "hook" that is unique among pet photographers.
One suggestion might be to have an assortment of pet clothing to dress up the animals, kind of like one of those photo galleries at Disney or Dollywood where they will make you look like your photo is from the Wild West, just do it for animals.
Shop for you clothing at your nearby thrift store.
Add other props as well to add character to the shots.
*Pet Graduations - Sticking with the pet theme, contact the local dog training schools to see if you can be on hand at the end of the class.
Pet owners are as crazy as parents about having great photos of their "babies".
Make sure you have some type of backdrop handy to make your photo more professional looking and get rid of the background distractions like fences and buildings.
If you are really ambitious, you can have a backdrop made that has the feel of a college graduation.
*Family Postcards - Many families now have their picture taken professionally for holiday greeting cards.
While this is a good idea, you can expand your services to include events like family picnics, special anniversaries (25th and 50th), reunions and other special family gatherings.
You can put together a package that supplies postcards and event albums.
There is no limit to what you can do in this category.
If you have an imagination and a passion for taking pictures, you can have a start-up business so that you can make money with your digital camera.
