Stock photography

I am starting a new stock photography portfolio at Fotolia – you can see my stock images here. The portfolio is building and should be well into the hundreds in a few months. I have other images else where that do very well on a stock basis, however learning the requirements of each stock site take a bit of time. It is amazing also how certain image types sell better on different sites – It is a fast learning curve.

Quality stock photography is a challenge. You need very high quality images, lit perfectly with a good depth of field. You needed to get the image right in camera with minimal tweaking in photo-shop. Strong colourful images work well, with images portraying health and vitality being some of the most popular.
