3 stock lessons posted on 22nd of january, 2008

Making progress slowly. I've learned a couple things about stock photography as I've been uploading.

1. Pretty is nice but good light is better

2. The shot must support more than one story

3. I still don't have a handle on 1 and 2

I'm hoping there isn't a penalty to trying too hard. :)

	Comment by Linqong on January 23, 2008 Wish you achieve greater progress!:)
	Comment by Charlesoutcalt on January 23, 2008 I love point #2! Number 1 is pretty good, too. It's been tough for me to transition from trying for 'pretty' photos to stock shots that might sell.
	Comment by Niagaragirl on January 22, 2008 Ha ha you are funny. Shoot what you love, and do it better than anyone else ;-)
	Comment by Dcb on January 22, 2008 Can I add that you need good light? :)

About Me

Amy Nicolai (Amyemilia)
Houston, US

I've been taking photographs since I was in my early teens, and I embraced the digital format in 2003, almost 40 years later. Now, I'm venturing into selling my work, and my entries on Dreamstime are my first effort. Please feel free to provide comments and criticism - I am always learning!

I maintain a Flickr photostream as well as my blog site above. My user name on Flickr is AmyEmilia (surprise, eh!)
