We have just released our first set of photos now sold through Alamy.com! It is just the beginning of what will become a very large body of work. My concentration is going to center around all that is San Diego for anybody’s journalism or advertising purposes.
Go see my stock photography!
I started this part of the business with a collection I have called Farmers Market. After all, I go to mine every week, religiously, and have gotten to know vendors and other shoppers as one does. Suddenly, I realized I should be documenting it all! It’s fun! Each week I shop and after getting my food, return to stroll with my camera. When I get home, I take the bounty into my studio and shoot it as still life subjects. This gives rise to another aspect of all of this and that is creating props and backdrops with which to display. Fortunately, San Diego has no shortage of second hand and thrift shops to go in search of quirky things I can use to photograph fruit and vegetables.
But again, this is just the beginning. While you can buy any of my photography at my fine art photography web site, www.christuckerphotography.com, an all new collection of photos centered mainly around San Diego and its culture, art, architecture and coastline is being shot and produced specifically for Alamy.com. Their position in the stock photography business will allow me to get my photos in front of a lot more people than I ever could.
Look for a nautical and sailing catalog in the near future. With a current client driving us to supply them with 60 sailing photos a month, I am accumulating a vast collection in very short order! Is there a type of stock photography that your business needs? Lets partner up to create them! I will shoot for you at a partner rate and you get to use all the photos while I include them in my stock offering.
