How to make money from photography?

hi all, we all on here probably take pictures for the love of it, but is there anyway of making money out of it (besides weddings, which i might try)

Stock photography is one way.
Papping is two
Photojournalism?

whats stock photography Azz?

It's like a catalogue of photographs that design agencies, marketing companies etc go to when they need a certain image for a job.

So the stock photography company has photos of almost anything and everything, and when a company wishes to use one they pay - and the photographer is then given a commission.

So images that get used more than once, get you commission more than once

(ps I changed the title of the thread so more people may notice it )

do you have any names or web sites for these agencies Azz

Here ya go... loads

We use a few of them at work (to buy images) so not really familiar with the selling part tbh :-/
