Stock Photography - My Adventure Begins

A couple of yeas ago, I applied and got approved at a few stock photography agencies. I chose Fotolia, iStockPhoto and ShutterStock because they were (and still are) that largest and most popular stock photography agencies. My aim was to gradually build up a portfolio of stock images, with a hope to improve my photography skills along the way.

Due to other commitments coming along (or should that read laziness!), my plan never took off, and I have made about 20 dollars from them! Not exactly a case to start planning my retirement…

I now feel I can put the time and effort into stock photography and will be documenting my progress here at Digitalopia.

To start off (and the subject of future articles), I will be looking at the various stock photography agencies, the type and style of photos that have a higher chance of being sold, and any extra equipment needed.

I feel it is going to be an exciting and challenging journey ahead. I hope you also enjoy following me on my travels.
