Don’t you just love Chocolate Chip Cookies? I am a Wedding, and Portrait Photographer in Littleton, Colorado. I was enjoying these cookies so much that I wanted to have some fun with them in my studio. Which brings me to today’s subject…Stock Photography.
When I am not shooting a Wedding or Portrait session. I shoot stock. What is stock? Stock photography is everything you see. Marketers, Advertisers, and Designers use Stock Photography for any type of materials they need. It’s a affordable way for companies to use images, video, illustrations, and audio for their marketing. Whether it is a large company of thousands, or just a Bride that needs a photo for a wedding invitation. That’s the beauty of it.
I have recently put a profile together on iStock. It’s a way to generate income with images that would otherwise sit on my hard drive.
The image above of Roxborough Park in Littleton, Colorado has sold 51 times. It’s not a lot of money, but it’s more than if it was just sitting on my hard drive.
This is my dog Sadie. This hasn’t sold many times, but it’s a great image. We were hiking on Boreas Pass in Breckenridge, Colorado. Sadie was standing on these rocks, and posed for me.
A couple of years ago we were traveling on the east coast. I saw this sign, and thought it was pretty cool. At the time I didn’t think it would be a stock shot. I uploaded it to iStock, and they accepted it.
Stock photography is a way to generate residual income. It’s a way to travel the world, and do what I love…Photography.
