For musicians, there are platforms, such as eMusic and JAAK though for photographers, there arent a lot of ways which able making money from selling their work. There are few platforms trying to reach out for help,Wemark is still in its infancy and there are photochain and some more. But even when artists attract a significant attention from many buyers on those, they rewarded with only small portion from the sale. In order to create income from selling photos, its not enough to increase awareness towards artists, a significant change in the balance of power is necessary.

In terms of photographers, artists, etc. blockchain solves the problem of assigning someone else's intellectual property, allows you to make the signature of your composition, picture or other work and put this information in a distributed registry (blockchain) and leave it there forever, thereby guaranteeing you the rights of the owner of this content. The very fact of this will help you to make a profit greater than before, but blockchain is not a panacea and it is not created to enrich you, but only to protect you and facilitate your life. Yes, I read about the Photochain project, I liked his idea, I'm sure we will see many more similar projects. But blockchain is not limited only to the field of intellectual property protection, it actually has a very wide scope and in the near future without this technology will not work any sphere of human life.

I honestly think that Blockchain was designed among other things to address the distribution of intellectual property revenues and loyalties. So IMHO using it for photographers to upload their work to a market place fits like a glove. Just stumbled upon Wemark (Wemark.com) these guys are making decentralized market place for photos and by using the blockchain they are going to cut down the stock photo publishers part from 85% of each sold photo to only 15%......that is WACK!
