I was so excited to finally get one of my photographs accepted by istockphoto.com. If you don't know istockphoto.com it is where people can go to purchase a stock photo for their marketing materials, website etc.... They pay a fee to use the art and the photographer gets a portion of the fee that is paid for the use of the file. Matt has had several of his pictures up there for a while, but I haven't spent as much time as he has really working on this. But, but when I was at the football pep rally for my boys waiting to see their teams parade by, I happen to be standing against the fence watching the cheerleaders. I saw a perfect istock photo moment, and I took it. I was so thrilled when it got accepted because I specifically took the shot with that in mind and it worked. Here is the link to the istockphoto page http://www.istockphoto.com/stock-photo-13938082-young-cheerleader.php, but I have also attached the picture. Now I just have to keep my eyes open for these moments, and then hope someone purchases my photos.
Hey Holly — Congrats on your new venture! Your photos are beautiful! And I use istock daily for work ... got anything to do with plumbing, radiant heating or piping? (ha,probably not). Anyways, maybe you can help me out with some family or sports pics in the future. In the meantime, I'll add you to my blogroll at www.southernmomentum.com. Stephanie (Armstrong)
