As we round into the first days and weeks of 2015, the late Winter and Early Spring holidays aren’t too far off. We all have Valentine’s Day on the mind, but don’t forget the king of party holidays, Mardi Gras – this year on February 17th!
If you’re interested in licensing my stock photography work, but find yourself locked into one particular agency due to company policy, this may be good news for you. I am currently adding stock content to my portfolio on Dreamstime: http://www.dreamstime.com/seanlockephotography_info
I’ve got a fairly successful set of images on Stocksy United that I license, around the theme of “The Clinic Exam Room”. I’m also licensing a series shot “In the Hospital”. Both were created in my studio, which is fine, but it always helps to go a step beyond if at all possible and shoot in a “real” and “authentic” location. Thus my new series: “The Hospital Patient Room”.
My stock image collection on my personal Photoshelter site is growing by the week, as is my portfolio at agencies like GL Stock Images. Today, I realized that people are searching for something and I hadn’t yet made it available for licensing. So, now it is 🙂 .
Last week, I told you about a promotional discount code that you can use at the new Royalty Free Stock Photo agency, Stocksy – click here to read. This week, to accompany that code, and to compliment it, I’m putting out a discount code for my personal stock collection, hosted at Photoshelter, which will you save you 20% off the current pricing!
I had someone ask about the lighting setup in my recent Barbeque Restaurant stock photo shoot. So I thought today would be a good day for a few behind the scenes images which can better illustrate, than me talking about it.
A few weeks back, I introduced my personal portfolio website, AccordStock, where you can use the kinds of tools you are used to from your regular stock image sites to browse my portfolio and identify images of interest. Today I’m introducing a new sorting method that should help you find your images a bit quicker.
Once in a while, on the iStockphoto forums, a buyer will post questioning whether it is within the license restrictions to crop, tint or otherwise modify a stock image they have purchased. Certainly, in the case of iStockphoto at least, the answer is “Yes! Please do as you need to fit your project!”…
Oh, happy coincidences… When I was planning out my new “Backyard Camping” stock photo series for licensing on iStockphoto, I had no idea that there was a national “Great American Backyard Campout” day sponsored by the National Wildlife Federation!
