Hey. Frankie. Let’s. Become. Friends. In. Person. Hopefully

what the hell? The video is so well made in terms of editing and info i was expecting a lot more views and likes??? I'm actually doing a research on alternative assets in my final year as a business student and decided to check out a couple videos...although i've already linked your channel...I hope you don't mind if I use your video as reference. Would love to know where your thoughts stand currently on this topic and if you have any research material you would recommend any articles/books that you've reviewed that could possibly help me :)

I unknowingly signed a renewed yearly subscription on Shutterstock. I only used the service once and was charged for nearly 10 years before I found it. I have not used the service since the first time and gave Shutterstock the opportunity to refund my money. They refused. Be aware that your subscription is likely a recurring charge and like me, the notices will go to your spam folder. I downloaded an image 10 years ago and have been charged nearly $300.

A lot of pro photographers commenting ...but what about true amateurs ? People who take tons of photos on leisure travels and want to monetise ? I've done that over the past 2 years on Adobe, Shutterstock, iStock and you may make anywhere between 100 to 300 a month for a portfolio of over 15000 accepted images. So think of it has just hobby income, pizza money and enjoy the process...you cant make a living of it as an amateur. Different for professional I guess.

I’m not sure what’s going on but shutter stock takes 5-7 days to review thanks for your video

If you need this isa a passive earning side job so you can do earn but if you do a testimony so its not for you

Only cents LOL, waste of time I gues. lol

This vid and the comments are absolutely 🔥 keep up the great work. So helpful ❤

So even if the shorts video not complete yet but the 4k watch ours is completed is still can be monetize?

It has been a year since you uploaded this video. How much have you made from these uploads until today?

Really appreciate the honesty in your videos and the way you break things down clearly and concisely. 🙌🏼

Listen, in about 2009 I answered an CL ad to go and take stock photos of myself in many different outfits and clothing in different poses and facial expressions. I didn't know to much about shuttersock of stock photos back then. Yes the paid me a bit of chump change back then..like maybe $200. But I realized just recently that MMMMANY of my photos are still being used right now as stock photos in 2024. I'm 46 now so you can do the math. Is there any way that I can make some money or royalties from all those pictures??? What can I do about this now? What are my options??? Should I get a lawyer involved?

This needs a professional approach not an amateur "this blurred image looks artsy" attitude. Holiday photos rarely get much success. It isn't easy, nobody should try it thinking it's cash-for-junk! Look at Dreamstime and research their stocks, they do show how many time images have been downloaded, which is a very helpful facility

this is so refreshing and valueable no flashy numbers, not many ads, thanks for this video this makes me excited

it's still the same for me..

40 cents for a week of work is pretty good but I think I if you flip burgers you might earn a bit more.

Can you earn money if someone remix your song/video?

If you shoot for clients, and do your homework. Check out magazines websites etc. Find the trends and treat stock photography as an investment then you should be able to make a decent living. Every chance I get I'll look at magazine and advertising sites. Also it's a numbers game. You need to constantly be shooting and uploading to numerous sites. Some are picky as hell but some are more than willing to take photos.

Can we submit photos by one plus nord 4 camera

I like the unique content idea behind this of talking about what is not worth it

Tbh, you might make more selling prints than on stock photography. I tried submitting to Shutterstock and Alamy. Shutterstock’s approval process is a grating experience, and some of your best shots (the shots that get the best feedback from peers and casual viewers) will be rejected by Shutterstock for the smallest reasons. And while Alamy does accept more shots, getting any sales on there is such a waiting game. I give credit to a lot of stock photographers who can somehow make a passive income from those sites, because they have more patience and consistency than the average person could possibly afford. And as for stock video, invest in a drone for video. Aerial footage of wilderness and cityscapes seem to be in high demand.

Hello brother, I have about 1,300 images in my portfolio on the Adobe Stock website. I started on this site a month ago, but with all of these images I only got five downloads. Should I continue on this site because I spend a lot of time and I don’t see any benefit from it yet? .......

Thank you for showing this, but your photos were awful for stock photography sites! They were touristy - not the type of assets that a client would need to purchase. This video was posted a year ago. You took pics that YOU liked - not pics that a client making a brochure or a website would need! That's the problem. I would love to see you try this, but FIRST asking ChatGPT to give you a list of the top 50 types of photos that companies buy from stock photo sites. Use that as a prompt and then generate images that are aligned with what people actually need for businesses. You should do better if you change that approach and do this challenge again.

I think the images where very bad and there was no a niche but great video

I used to work at a film studio that would pump out hundreds of (stock videos) a day and my whole job was to keyword the clips and upload them to shutterstock. I wonder how much they would make off of it.

Great video ~ ~ informative content. What sites do you recommend now for new beginners like me? If you would please provide that advice, I'd sincerely appreciate it. Thank you, stay safe, and have a great day!!! Edit: I also hit the thumbs up and subscribed. Thank you again.

Hi, as many other partners commented, the stock is not fast passive income..you may need at least 1 year and much more portfolio to have a real income... in any case, great work!

Just wanted to check myself.. The visible brand or logo at 6:10 could be on the light reflector

Questiok for author of this video. Did you upload more photos after this test? And did you earn something finally after long period of Time? . I love bird photography but it doesnt sell. We live in commercial World were you must promote thibgs. People buy stuff which cobtains industrial etc not nature. Thats sad because i like to shot photos but mine point of view doesnt pay back. And the hobby is expensive

This is very helpful. Thank you.

Wouldn't your description be what kind of search terms a customer might use to find what they need? If so, "shoes" or "shoe display" might have been a better description. Not sure anyone would search the location or that it's a vacation photo.

Adobe Stock is generally better for me than Shutterstock. Also, Adobe does provide feedback on the photos, check under the rejected tab...

I wonder how its going with that stock many months later, very curious how this standing now.

Dude, it takes a whole lot more than a couple months.

Loved this video! Respect bro

I think the visible logo at 06:13 is probably the brand name on the back of the flash umbrella. That could be clone stamped out surely?

Dude hasn't posted in 4 months. Quitter

Can I borrow 20 cents?

Hi; I'm a stock photographer / videographer, and I'm not agree with the vision you're sharing about stock photography. The first point is that your work isn't commercial; they are just photos in your hard drive that you want to monetise. If you want to make a business from that, you have to shoot more commercial assets, learn composition, lighting, editing... I upload images constantly to more than eight agencies, and Adobe makes me the 60% of income, and rarely have rejections. In the beginning you have to take rejections as a learning process; what is more, the fact that Shutterstock accepted more assets doesn't mean that they're going to be sold. Step by step, you can learn how this industry works, but it's a long term trip. By the way, when you keep years on that, you see logos and brands in a second before uploading, as I could see the brand of the umbrella in the distance while you were saying that haven't seen any. I don't want you or any other person here to take this comment as hater, but as a constructive criticism.

How is it going? This channel is dead too? What are you up to now?

I've earned more from Adobe than from Shuttersock and Alamy combined. I find them much easier to upload to as well. My only issue with them is their approval process takes so long, so you're definitely not going to make much in 30 days from them. As someone else said, you have to approach stock photography in a professional manner. The images (and videos) need to be top quality, no lens flare, no out of focus subjects, correct colours, etc. Arty stuff doesn't sell, stuff people can use in their advertisements does. My best seller is a crystal ball on a white background, lit from the side. It's a very simple image that has heaps of uses. Another thing to remember is, stock photography is a long term thing and you need to keep submitting work all the time.

I recently had a frustrating experience with Shutterstock. I had an image approved and listed for sale, but just a few days later, my account was disabled due to that same image. Despite my efforts to resolve the issue, Shutterstock has withheld my commissions and hasn't clearly explained the violation. This lack of transparency and fairness is incredibly frustrating. Has anyone else experienced this? How did you handle it?

Shooting stock certainly isnt a get rich quick money maker. More like a marathon. Like any job you have to put in the hours. But it’s certainly possible to pull in $1000 + per month from it. I love it but am always learning even after several years at it.

Thank you

Is there a way to upload images in PNG format on Shutterstock? I am suffering a lot from this issue It accepts my jpg images and show (unsupported) for the png ones🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Your comments about Adobe photo stock are accurate. It's very frustrating. I'm gonna try Shutterstock.

ua-cam.com/video/jBvx63eZZ2g/v-deo.html - I would lean towards the photographer and his Lighting stand possibly Manfroto or the likes, could of triggered copyrighted design/logo.

thank you very much. I m lookıng thıs type challenge

Good night. How do you ensure that a buyer, after buying a photo of you, doesn't sell it as if it were that buyer's photo? What security does shutterstock give you so that this doesn't happen to you? Thanks

You sold me, i will be applying to Vint.
