Waiting for momma...

Another image just approved by Dreamstime and Canstock. This is our little Bichon-Poodle. She's 10 years old and probably the smartest dog in the world. Mrs. Magnum liked it so much she ordered a 20x30 canvas print from Photobucket.

New photos approved...

Received an email from Dreamstime informing me they had accepted a few more of my images. If you're interested in submitting work to stock image companies, it's really simple to do. Just make sure you look them over for things like focus, composition, and lighting. They are a bit picky. Leave a comment if you need any information on how to get started.

Model Release Templates...

If you are considering submitting any of your images to a stock photo agency, be advised that they will require a signed Release for any photos including recognizable images of people or properties. You're going to need three: Model Release, Model Release for Minor, and Property Release.

I have created my own releases, and if you'd like a copy in .doc format to modify for your own use, let me know. Just leave a comment with your email address, and I will send whichever ones you would like.

Another stock agency added...

I sent some of my images to a stock agency known as Canstock. I heard back from them today with approval on several of my images. I'm including one of them on the left.

If you're interested in submitting your images to stock agencies, here's a list of the biggies that you might wish to consider:

DREAMSTIME
SHUTTERSTOCK
123RF
ISTOCK
BIGSTOCK
FOTOLIO

There are several others, but these represent some of the largest.
