Edgy Photos Sell in the Art World.

For most workaday photographers, the world of auctions, collectors and the art market can seem very far away. But that doesn’t stop just about everyone who picks up a camera from dreaming about it. While few photographers seriously expect their wedding formals or baby portraits to change hands for six-figure sums, many would certainly like to believe that one day, just maybe, they’ll see their landscapes or their street photography hanging in a gallery, reviewed by critics, adored by curators and fought over by collectors.
Not only it could happen for photographers with the right talent but according to art expert, Lauren Gentile, photographers might even be in an enviable position in comparison to some other artists.
