Exploring my passion for photography
Nothings shows I am ready for rejection quite like submitting my first images to iStock. I’m looking forward to their feedback though, since one of the most difficult things to do as a photographer is to curate my own work. No, this is not what I submitted, I’ll keep you updated with the process :).

Good luck! I’d really like to get to the point where I’d feel comfortable submitting too. Looking forward to reading your updates. Take care.

Thank you. Start by reading their requirements – if the photos are clean (in terms of quality) then the secret is to give them things they don’t get that often. I will share my experience maybe others will learn something from it.

I look forward to reading your feedback, I thought about submitting to Getty Images but haven’t done it yet!

I’ll keep you updated. I thought about it for a long time too. After I get their feedback, I am planning to submit to other platforms too and maybe start to build a stock portfolio. Well executed, clean conceptual photography is what they are mainly looking for, and I don’t have any of those unfortunately…There are so many restrictions too, it’s eye opening going through their guide.

Thank you 🙂 When they ask for ‘conceptual photography’ do they tell which concepts they would like to have photographers explore? Or do they just say it as a guideline and give creative freedom for the theme of the portfolio?

No specifics, at least not on iStock. Anything really. The more unique/creative the better. But simple and clean goes a long way, from what I see.
