If you sell high-end crafts that cost well over $100 per piece you will likely do well to stay away from street festivals. Likewise if you sell hand-made pop-guns for kids you would do better to spend you money on attending lower cost shows than wasting your money on expensive art events. Remember to always match the type of event to your product.

When you apply for juried shows, your pictures should be of the highest quality as possible. Digital cameras can make taking those photos a lot easier these days, however if you are not happy with the results of your own photography skills, you should hire a professional. After that you can make copies of the images for future applications.
