SAE:

 Start an Agriculture Photography Service

Description:

If you have an interest in photography and enjoy making money, there are many opportunities for photographers in agriculture. Animals, equipment, barns, families, children with animals, and show animals are all possible areas for an ag photographer to make money.

Begin by advertising your service in your local community paper, agriculture organizations (Farm Bureau, Cattleman’s, etc.), and county extension office.

Initial investment is dependent upon the types of pictures you will be taking. Outdoor pictures do not require as much equipment as indoor pictures.
