You might be able to find better answers in some photography forums, but maybe you could create a postcard/business card/ whatever from the picture and send it to the fill-in-the-blank department of those companies and have all of your information on it etc. I'm sorry that's probably not of much help, like I said some forums will probably be able to help you out better.

It is a pretty photo. (Although I don't care for the edge effect, that is subjective, of course, and many people will love the edge!)
Trying to see to a stock agency is an option, but to be successful you need a huge portfolio, or else very unique images that no one else is doing. Not trying to be critical, your photo is lovely, but stock is full of lovely photos, and nothing makes this one stand out from the crowd.
There is a Photographer's Market guide, listing companies that buy images and how to contact and submit. That would list practically everywhere you could submit an image to, and is a great resource for photographers trying to sell their work.
Or you can print and market your own cards.
Good luck!

Wonderful shot. I agree with you it would look great on a card. I do not know how you would go about selling it. You might want to try a stock photo site. Good Luck
OK To all the people that want to give her a hard time about selling her daughters photo. I want you to stop and think when the last time you looked at a picture of a child (stranger) and found enjoyment out of it. There are cards, advertisements and posters of children on them everywhere. Where do you think those picture come from? Just because she she wants to sell a photo of her daughter does not make her a bad parent. The photo is beautiful. I have a few of my children I would sell if I knew who would buy them.

that is an awesome shot, wow! make your own line of cards...the card publishers will not ever treat you right and they will take all rights to the picture for themselves...they are more trouble than they are worth, i've dealt with some of them, and the bigger they are the worse they are (halmark is as bad a k-mart, it has turned into the hobby lobby of cardmakers.)
the picture is just awesome, wish i could get shots like that of my grandchildren.

'2007 Photographer's Market' is a good resource.

just go to corbis or gettyimages.com and see if they are interested to have it listed. you get 30-40% on the usage fee (depending on the media and markets used) if the image gets used (you probably know this already).
