I love the handholding where you take time to tell the viewers why you think one photo sold more than its companion. This approach goes a long way to enhancing my understanding of stock photography sales. Many thanks!

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

@annerichard788 10 месяцев назад

I'm not bad to guess which of your photos sold more, not as good at figuring how to take my own successful photos!

stock is not only a numbers game it is also a time game, lots of photos lots of time 😅

@geartechstuff3592 10 месяцев назад

These videos are great! I got most of the guesses wrong! Lol The National Geographic “guy in the canoe” pic, I assume that was an editorial, unless you stopped the boat to get a model release?

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

Yes it is an editorial so was the aerial shot, there were a few people climbing the pyramid. Thanks for sharing your "results" I am trying to make it difficult 😁

Question? I was a Pro Stock Photographer in the 70s,80s,and 90s. Made good money to cover all my cost plus profit. From just 2 Stock photo Agencies. I read that most picture usages only get a 1 dollar per use,per pic. How is it worth all the time and effort, to do the same in this day and time. I love photography, BUT my time is worth something. Thanks for your answer.

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

Its not for everyone for sure, I made a full video on this subject but basically I recommend this for anyone learning photography, or anyone with photos and no outlet, the $1 is a good sale, most sell for $0.10 or $0.30, occasionally (rare) $200 or $30, It is a numbers game and its definitely not like it was 20 years ago, however you can make a full time income If you put in the work and time, I like that is it residual income I haven't uploaded photos for a few months yet I keep getting paid each month

@ndunk34 10 месяцев назад

Terimakasih atas insight nya. Ada beberapa point yang bisa saya dapatkan dari foto2 yg bisa terjual lebih banyak. 1. Kegunaan foto yang bersifat lebih universal. 2. Benda atau bentuk yang lebih generik dan bisa digunakan untuk berbagai produk. Jangan terlalu spesifik. 3. Masih di spot atau tema yang sama, tapi dengan lebih sedikit persaingan atau belum banyak orang yang submit foto tersebut. CMIIW Love this video, please make another video like this with 1 spesifik niche from your portfolio

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

Yes! but also remember you need photos that don't sell so that the best sellers can be found 🤷‍♂️

Great game. I was right about half of them. Regarding the first one, how do you overcome the identification of the children in the photo without releasing a model - publishing it as editorials?

@HistoricMetals 10 месяцев назад

OK, done playing now, and honestly, I got 100%. I think these were a little too easy... at least if you've been saturating yourself for the last week with "how to stock video/photos" or "what sells in stock" videos for a week or so, trying to finally psych yourself up to start submitting from a collection of over 40K pieces of media from the last ten years of shooting.

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

More to come!

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

😅 I'll try to find harder ones next time. honestly don't think about it too much, upload as much as you can, only about 5% of my online files sale but they need the other 95% to be found 🤷‍♂️

@HistoricMetals 10 месяцев назад

@@wollertz That seems to be the consensus. It's a game of quality in quantity, and ideally you can find an under exploited niche. Anyway, ALL your photos were pretty good, but I was able to guess them right because I'm immersed in the "how to stock" lane of learning lately.

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

I'll make it more difficult for next time 😁

6:10 - in shtterstock for example they don't allow me to put photos with letters on - why is it possible for you to upload this image ?

@DMTGAMEHUB 8 месяцев назад

Hi my images was approved in shutterstock how will i know if i earn money on approved images or i only earn money if that approved images will be sold?

@wollertz 8 месяцев назад

Yes, you only make money when someone buys the images, thats why it takes numbers and time, try to get a good solid collection of at least 1000 photos

@salimc7690 10 месяцев назад

Can you now expect which of your photos won't sell? And do you post them anyway??

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

It’s still a guess, now I can make sure I put more intention into each photo and follow the rules of composition, comercial value etc, but even if the photo is not perfect I upload anyway, only 5% of my portafolio sells, but the 95% that don’t are there to get the other files found

@salimc7690 10 месяцев назад

Thanks a lot. I know you keep repeating that all time but I guess we still need to hear that! 95% that doesn't sell is not something easy to accept!

@wollertz 10 месяцев назад

That’s why I recommend doing multiple shots of the same subject, you synchronize settings and metadata, and uploading and submitting similar subjects is much easier, 10 images and 1 is a best seller doesn’t hit as hard as uploading one of a kind images and not selling many 😅

yes you can do the same, but mine are already on top because of the number of sales, so put your own twist on them and make them better!
