As a photographer, you work hard at events and shoots and you take hundreds of photos.
Although you will sell prints and photo books to your customer, it can be hard for you to sell your photos to the many other people that would want to buy them.
Fotovender makes it easy for you to sell photos you have taken in your very own WordPress website.
Here is the process for making your photos available for purchase in your website.
You take your photos at the event or photo shoot in the normal way.
Using the Fotovender uploader, you upload the photos in bulk from your computer to your account in the Amazon cloud storage service.
With Amazon S3, storage is unlimited, so there are no limits on the number of photos you can upload and no limits on the size of the photos.
Next, you create a new gallery in your website and you import the images into the new gallery.
Each of your different events and photo shoots has its own gallery and each gallery has its own unique webpage.
You ask your customer to share the URL for your gallery via Facebook and email with friends, family, and other attendees at the event.
Attendees of the event will visit your website, browse through your gallery, and find the photos that interest them.
They fill their cart with the photo prints and other products they want and then they complete the purchase process.
Once you receive an order through your website, you send the orders for the prints to your favorite photo lab.
With Fotovender, the entire purchase process takes place on your website using your domain name.
You have full control of your website and you can adjust its look and feel the way you want it.
Best of all, when you receive an order, you keep all the money.
