Gonna Make A Serious Effort - Stock Photography Blog

Gonna make a serious effort..

posted on 16th of july, 2011

Not new here since I joined over a year ago to try to sell some of my photos. Got 10 photos accepted and over the first year I also had 10 sells but it was not an serious effort from me since I didnt regulary upload new images. Now I will change that. :)

I recently uploaded 12 photos and got 6 accepted, right now I have 18 photos waiting for review, hoping for a 50% approval there as well.

My first goals are:
- 50 uploaded photos to get the possibilty to become exclusive.
- Getting my first level 2 photo
- 25 sells.

Which will I reach first?

Attaching my first photo accepted and also my most popular with currently 4 sells. The mountain hare portrait.

	Posted by Karenfoleyphotography on July 17, 2011 Good luck with your goals.
	Posted by Laurasinelle on July 17, 2011 Keep working, with more images you upload more sales you´ll have!

	Posted by Haslinda on July 16, 2011 I see that you listed sports as one of your likes and have a couple of fishing lures in your portfolio. How about uploading pictures of anglers fishing, catching that big fish, etc. Another consideration is editorials. Marathons, cycling, etc - people and commercial shots. That may help achieve your goals. I agree about quality that sells being more important than quantity. Do what you love to do and have fun at it. Best of luck! :)
	Posted by Silent47 on July 16, 2011 Like Halient said,just focus on quality and not quantity.In time the sales will come.PS:I still wait for my sales to come:)
	Posted by Grafvision on July 16, 2011 Great picture
	Posted by Halient on July 16, 2011 dont worry about the sales, once you have more content and they will come. Just be concerned about producing good quality images that have a market and dont let your feeling be hurt if you dont have something sell. I have shots that I absolutely thought would be a seller that took 2 years to get a sale.
