That is what professional means. What differs is how. Some galleries will sell your work on consignment, for a commission. They do the marketing and selling for you, for a fee. The upside is you don't have to pay anything, just produce, when the sale is made, they pay you. The downside is you might get a bit greedy and want to make all the money, which some artists do, forgetting that a percentage of something is a lot more that 100% of nothing. So, unless you are a good artist, a good marketeer and a very good sales rep, you will always be a very small time artist. Oh! and cafes and the likes are now waking up to to the trend, too, they are also starting sell on consignment, especially those that have a clientele with buying power.

Some whom have looked into displaying their work at galleries might find that some galleries they can't afford to pay the fee. Though still they don't need to rule out galleries. I display my work at a local art gallery. The fee per month is 20 dollars. After making friends with the owners I was offered to do a couple of chores around the gallery in exchange for the monthly fee. If it wasn't for that offer I would not be selling my work there still.

Search for artist run galleries in your community, which usually have a higher turnover rate of shows and look for emerging local talent... plus they aren't in the business to sell your work, only to show it. One in my community even has a top level for more renown artists, and a basement gallery for newer artists and student artists. I've had work shown here and it's a great experience. They are often open to having group exhibits as well, if you don't want to shell out the money for printing enough work to fill the room. It doesn't hurt to ask the gallery owner a few questions. In cafes/restaurants/coffee houses, make sure you are displaying work you think would suit the clientele, or else it'll never leave the walls. Your outrageous artistic series probably won't work well in a conservative location. Emerging photographers shouldn't completely rule out galleries.
