GETTING STARTED WITH STOCK PHOTOGRAPHY in 2024. My first month report: agencies, uploads & a sale!

If you've been wanting to get started being a Stock Photography contributor - this is your sign!! I've just started - seriously started - on my Stock journey - so come along with me and I'll tell you the highs and lows of what to expect on the road as I'm going. If you start now, we can do this together!!
In this episode, I'm talking about: which agencies I chose and why, how many agencies I'm going with (and why), how many uploads I've made so far and a basic strategy I'm starting with. Also some recommended extra learning and the disproportionate amount of joy I get when I make even the tiniest sale. ;)
Let me know if I can help you on your journey too! I promise to answer all the comments. xx Tracy

    appreciate the vid! it's worth the couple hundred bucks for set of wireless mics; you've got a cool channel going here with relevant content/info, your audience will DEF appreciate improving your legibility when it comes to audio quality.
