I like January. I mean it isn’t my favorite month of the year, but I like the holiday wind down. Cleaning up, putting away, fresh start and all that. It also means it’s about a month away from my birthday (2/15), but more importantly for you advertising designers, Valentine’s Day! A time of year to bring out the teddy bears, heart shaped boxes of candy, and diamond necklaces. Today, I’ve got a new series online at Stocksy United to help […]
Stock image buyers who shop at Stocksy United – if you ever can’t find a certain subject, get in touch with Support. They’ll let us know, and we’ll try to fill in the collection. For instance, this new series was a buyer request – “people using technology to work from home, indoors and outdoors”.
My portfolio of stock images can be found on quite a few sites, listed on this page. Starting today, you can now also license a selection of my work at Shutterstock, which adds another royalty free agency to the list.
As many rang in the new year, iStockphoto took the opportunity to raise the “credits per image” pricing on its Signature, Signature+ and Vetta collections. As well, the buyer got a double hit with an increase a month or so ago in the “cost per credit” they are paying!
2013 was certainly an interesting year for my stock photography business. A short recap, and then a favorite image from each month!
Today, I’d like to introduce you to a new place that you can license my royalty free stock photo content from. It’s right here on my seanlockephotography.com site! It’s built on a relatively new platform called “Symbiostock” and allows you to license directly from me, without a middle man.
Time really flies this time of year. I’ve been really busy working on new holiday stock imagery that I’ve neglected my blog posting here a bit. I’ll remedy that slightly today, with an update on the new series that I’ve put up on Stocksy – “Holiday Backgrounds” for Christmas, Hanukkah and just generic “Happy Holidays”.
While I do enjoy Halloween, and I immensely love watching the leaves change during Autumn (they’ve been amazing this year, here), Thanksgiving is my highlight of the Fall months. I look forward to getting my cooking magazines with the brined and browned bird on the cover in September, the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special (my favorite of the big three) and the Macy’s parade. I realized this year, that I don’t have a series dedicated to the headliner, the roast turkey, […]
Halloween is almost here! That means Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Then the winter holidays, like Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa. Advertising designers are in full swing right now. Budgets are tight, so I’m going to give you an early holiday gift! You’ll have to read down to get it though – so first, a look at my recent additions to my online stock image portfolio for the holidays.
Today’s portfolio update features a shoot that, once again, was a client request to the Stocksy United contributors. I love when buyers let us know they are looking for something specific, as it really helps us to hit the mark. Of course, it’s best when the topic has a wide appeal as well – you don’t want to head out and do a shoot that is too “niche” – it won’t pay off. However, the theme of “Grocery Shopping” always […]
