All you have to do to create a demand for your work is find your vision. Remember that there are a lot of photographers out there, but no one sees the world through your eyes. The things that you discover drama or beauty in are different from what others find. So capture that difference, it will be the thing that sets your work apart from every other pretty sunset or fluffy kitten in the world. It isn't lighting or contrast that sells pictures, but rather things like mood, emotion and sensation. These are invisible to naked eye but shine through a good photo like a melody in the background, and they can't be duplicated.
It is now easier than ever to turn your dream into reality and create a worthwhile business out of an engrossing hobby. However in today's modern world there is more to it than simply pointing a camera, and shooting a picture. You need to be aware of marketing techniques, and here marketing simply means transferring ownership of a product, in this case an image from a buyer to seller.
