Update: You can also now sell photos with NextGEN Gallery and NextGEN Pro. Check out the WordPress gallery plugin page at Imagely.com for details on both the free and pro version. The Pro version is needed for image sales.
It is one thing to run a successful photo blog but it is quite another to actually have it cover its costs. One of the most popular blogging platforms for photographers is WordPress. WordPress overs a great way of presenting your work in blog or portfolio format but what if you want to sell your images?

Really like this, thanks for highlighting it. Wanting to update my website for the future – i.e if I do want to move toward getting paid then this looks very impressive. Thanks again, you’re always good at highlighting themes – I think I found my current one on here too!
This is a great idea but I am not sure many people buy photos anymore. I had a decent period before the recession when I was selling prints on a regular basis. These days I mostly get people asking for high res files (for free) to make their own prints.
