Q&A: ANSWERING QUESTIONS (Stock photography, macro extension tubes, news photos, Pond5 & more)
Hey! I'm a beginner and was wondering: It's not necessary a sort of model release for people in protests? How the platforms distinguishes content in this regard (required vs. non required release)?
Hello, I don't understand your comparison, the 60-600mm should have been compared to the 150-600mm sport and not contemporary one. Because optical treatment is not the same as weather protection. To say that there is no difference in sharpness is certainly wrong, moreover it would have been interesting to test these two lenses with a mirrorless camera..a R5 for example.
I need reserv with tickets? help I am from ecuador I want to visit here
What about 2024 ...now iphone 15 comes with 48mp and great video quality Can we use iphone 15 for stock photography and videography? Does my content will sell?
People expect to see bears and get disappointed- y'all know their "wild". Nobody can predict where and when you may, or may not, see them. You seem so disappointed. Feel free to stay out of our parks!
why not sell branded photos directly to the brand?
AI is all illustrations only, there are zero photos generated by AI. It's also theft from all over the internet. Total garbage.
Hi, great job on these stock videos man, I am learning from you appreciate a lot! I have two questions about stock that are boggling me and I can't find the proper answer anywhere: 1) If for example we submit some picture that is illegal to sell (for example some architecture that, sculpture, piece of art) that we didn't know we needed owner approval or even if it has an owned in the first place to sell it but one of the stock agencies still approves it, then in the end in case of some rights problem who is there to blame, a contributor or the stock agency? What happens for example if we already earned something from that picture and someone will sue us for the lack of release? 2) Does stock do some kind of clean ups? Or a picture that is approved but for example never sells in like 10 years will still be there? Do you know anything about this topic?
I have never been a proponent of external zoom/focus lenses. But I know they are cheaper than internal ones...Cheers.
Hi great tips, any advice on the optimal video length? Thanks
Hey Nicole, I love your videos thankyou. Do you already have a video to show how to upload newsworthy photos for the likes of say a protest ? I know it'll be editorial but it's impossible to get model releases for the upload....I think I might be overcomplicating my thought process 🙂
No need for model releases. Just mark it as editorial (read the editorial submission guidelines on the various platforms)
Are those cicadas in the background making the noise?
Yeah, they’re crazy loud at this time of year
I am just starting with shutterstock and have been with Alamy for a few years now, still, I can see some nice values in Alamy, but once in a while, with 15 times less images in Shutterstock than Alamy I got already 3 downloads (in 10 days on the platform), yes, 30 cents,..., but I can see where you are going here. My most successful platform so far is Dreamstime where I have 12000 images, but I am also growing on iStock (where I have now close to 10.000), and Wirestock (where you can easily compare and Shutterstock is the strongest, second is Adobe). I am still waiting for Adobe to approve my first batch (they are very very slow, I can see that).
thank you... 🙏❤️
Any time!
I recently went to DC and took some photos because I got lost and people are saying that I should do photography I did go to school for graphic design but I've never used a camera mostly drawing art t-shirt's logo's stuff Mostly Photoshop and Illustrator. I always take pictures of stuff, but I never really posted it because I never thought anybody wanted to see it. I was thinking from a business perspective I could take photographs and design a logo at the very least, I was wondering if stock photography would keep me afloat in between projects or at least cover overhead costs. Just paying for Adobe and the website would be worth it to me.... I was starting out asking a question but I think I don't have anybody to talk to about this type of stuff so I might just be thinking out loud. I think I'm trying to figure out if I should save up to get the camera and lenses. I'm better at editing than taking photos. I would think that's worth something
Stock photography is not what it was when I made this video. However, stock video is more lucrative. You don’t necessarily need a professional DSLR. If you have a newer phone and can film quality 4K footage of news events, you have a pretty good chance of making some money from it. My newer videos on this topic are more useful for the times :)
@NicoleGlass thanks for the info! I think I will use stock photography to somewhat build my portfolio, I've been listening to some videos, I kinda already have a bunch. I kind of see it like social proof for what I want to do!
you've got an up and coming mountain biker. great video
Thanks! Yeah it is his big talent I believe… he was racing up and down those hills before the age of 2 🤯
How does it work with getting people in your photos? Do you have permission to post them?
Plz i need a keyword that i can use for a flower photo jow can j go about it
Hi am new here
I'd better stay with my DJI osmo pocket 3. And leave my phone in the pocket alive for phone calls and chatting.
Not in my budget at the moment (expensive vehicle repair coming up) but this might be handy for someone like me. I can be real steady with still shots, but I'm not good at video pans and tilts and swoops and such. I'll take any tech advantage I can get.

Hi Nicole can you make a tutorial video to take outdoor clips Cinematic using Mobile
Great idea, I'll see what I can do
chinese trinket review fatigue is real hopefully they have impoved things , cos the gopro giombal i had from them broke after 4 months. wouldnt buy another one of these chinesium items again.
Keep at it. FYI, UA-cam is both a search intent based aka "search engine" and bahavior/interest based "videos might interest you (based on your history)" - Facebook/IG is purely interest/behavior based. Both platforms UA-cam and FB/IG (Meta) are equally good, I recommend both platforms in tandem.
i usually use my forearm as a "tripod/fence" - i basically hold out my left forearm and put the lens on that forearm and hold the shutter button on my right finger. technique from sniper days.
Whatever works! You probably have a really steady hand, given your background
I found the process of getting started on Alamy. Their policy of rejected every photo in a submission if they find a problem with one photo can be frustrating. But once you learn to examine your photos more closely before uploading, the process seems to go a lot smoother. That said, I have had the most success over the last seven years in stock photography with iStock (Getty). I've earned more than 10 times what I earned on Shutterstock in the same period with largely the same photos. I also upload to Adobe Stock although I haven't seen a lot of success with them. Finally, I've been uploading to Dreamstime for the past year or so and have yet to see a sale there.
Very good video. I guess I won't be uploading my water lilly photos🎉
Thanks! Haha yeah, you'd be competing with lots of other water lillies !
Hey how are you? This tripod is £299 here in the UK... Is it worth that?
Depends how much you need a travel tripod. If you go places a lot and need a lightweight tripod then it's surely worth it.
This looks great! Awesome video
Thanks!
Can I post ancient temples, monesty, hotels and old sculptures pictures on stock without property released form ??
I began since 2021 and I have only 9 $ until now
AHHAHA i saw your Toe PHOTO very good IDEA learn alot of things from your work Your Work is very good i upload 3 images and download 1 now i am working on it regular you guide in a good way very good thank YOU. GOD BLESS YOU
This was a great video for me. I'm in a deep, grumpy photographic slump. Mostly I've just been using my GoPro to make timelapses of the sky. After watching this video, I feel like I have a new project to get me back in the camera groove: make better timelapses.
So that means faulty QC. Sure possible. How many will you buy to get a good one?

I don't understand your explanation on how to earn through videos. Please take your time to explain how it works.thanks
are we allowed to take pictures of people without telling them?
If it’s a public place (like a parade or protest), then you upload those photos as editorial images
I have not got long till I get this lens now but the lens is not that heavy when it says it's light weight bin other reviews I have read so It 2 months time
