Shutterstock - Snap pics on your phone and upload!

Shutterstock is an amazing way to not only make a little side money, but to get your work noticed if you are a photographer. I am by no means a professional, but in my work I am constantly running around Western Kentucky, often times along back country roads or in the parks, and I pull out my phone and snap pictures of animals, plants, scenery, pretty much everything.

After I upload my photos to Shutterstock, they display them online for businesses and people to browse and possibly even use for their websites and e-books. The interface is ridiculously easy to use, and before I knew it I had 10 images pending review. Literally, it took me 5 minutes. Will my photos sell like hotcakes, no - but the more you take, and the higher quality they are, the more your pictures have a chance to sell.

It's not just for photographers, videographers can also post their videos and earn money as well. Head over to the site, have a look around, and decide if this is the type of passive income you are looking for.

Post Joke: Some nice Asian people gave me a very high quality camera at the Lincoln Memorial. I had no clue what they were saying to me, but it made my day to get that gift.
