Photography is really hard to make a living off because cameras are so readily avilable and anyone can take pictures.
However, I'm not saying good photography dosen't take skill because it does. Depending on your savings you could always set up your own photography studio and make some money that way.
There are internet sites where you can upload pictures and that may get you noticed. Or, but I have no idea how you would get into this, there are roles within film making called directors of phoptography. Basically these dps decide where and how the light in films will be shown.

Tasteful nude images have always sold and will always sell.
Try to avoid images of the genitals. That can offend people and really shrink your potential market in the USA.
I would suggest making one-of-a-kind hand-crafted alternative prints and opening a personalized online gallery. Use eBay and other live auction sites to make people aware of your work and gallery. I sell a couple 11x14 prints for $79 to $125 almost weekly. That adds up.
Your best move towards becoming a professional photographer is make sure your equipment, vehicle and home are paid for. You are more likely to be successful.

That's a really hard question to answer properly without knowing the type of photography you do and what your level is at this time.

you might have to do some promo work first to get the word out and to begin your portfolio... then once you have pictures that are getting exposure, some people may want you to take pictures for them.... and you'd have to charge a reasonable price...
go to craigslist.org and you can advertise there for free!
Good luck

What do you shoot? Tell us and a answer might arrive for you. So my advice find a niche then write a marketing plan, like any business.

Auctions maybe. I know that some auctions are specialized specifically in selling artwork. Trust me your name will spread from there. Post advertisements. Meet more artsy people. JUst get your name out there.
