Stock photography

Do any of you do stock photography, also if you do could you recommend some websites, as there are so many of them.

I have read several magazine articles about it, and I am quite interested.

Thank you xx

Re: Stock photography

Have you started your course Suzi, wondered if they cover this side of matters or is it purely photographic technical information?

Don't think my efforts will ever be good enough for anyone else to want but it is nice to know and understand how things work.

Re: Stock photography

Really clairelou, I love your stuff have you been with them awhile?

Picture Nation, I have heard of them, plus I have noticed the rates etc really vary from each site.

Snaps yep, started it, I am just interested, as now with digital and the internet there are so many ways to sell your stuff and get it out there.

Re: Stock photography

Have to say why not get some return for your work and skill if you can, after all there are always loads of equipment to be bought to say nothing of tasty extras like bags and corsets

Re: Stock photography

I' m not saying I am good enough yet, but it is something I am interested in the future. I have been looking at Shutterstock.

Snaps you are right, equipment and pretty girlie things are expensive
