- Potential earnings
- $400-2000/month
Create photorealistic corporate imagery (business meetings, team collaboration, office scenes) and sell as stock photography on platforms that accept AI content.
Why it works
Businesses need generic but high-quality images constantly. Real photo shoots are expensive and require model releases. AI can generate indistinguishable photorealistic people and scenes.
Step by step
- Research best-selling stock photo themes (diverse teams, technology, collaboration)
- Use AI with camera-specific prompts for photorealistic output
- Generate 20-30 variations of popular concepts
- Upscale to at least 4MP resolution
- Submit to Adobe Stock or another platform that accepts AI content, with AI disclosure
Tools you'll use
- Midjourney
- AI Upscalers
- Adobe Stock
- Freepik
Chuck's pro tip
Check each platform's AI policy before you upload. Adobe Stock and Freepik take properly labelled AI images, but Shutterstock does not accept AI-generated submissions from contributors, so skip it or your work gets rejected. Focus on diversity and modern business concepts. Raw style parameters produce more stock-appropriate images.
