Stock photography

We have a gallery of over 3000 images with multiple stock sites.  We’ll be posting images, links, information about stock photography, etc. in this section.

In order to get the maximum possible return for each image, we’ve decided to skip exclusivity for now and focus our attention on a broad spectrum of stock agencies. We are always examining, adding, removing and investigating agencies. Our plans for 2009 include adding Alamy and removing a few non-earners from our regular upload cycle. Production is key so I’ll put the list of agencies we work with into our income order.

1) Shutterstock – by far our biggest producer.

2) Dreamstime – images “season in” and produce more later than they do earlier.

3) IStock – difficult but worth it.

4) Fotolia – hard on some types of images.

5) 123RF – a mid level producer for us.

6) Bigstock – just behind 123RF in rank.

Other agencies we submit to but not regularly include:

• Canstock
• MostPhotos
• FeaturePics
• Veer Marketplace
• CutCaster
• YayMicro
