Hi Everyone,

I wanted to give you a heads up that after tomorrow (Friday, July 24) I will be on a one month sabbatical and will be offline most, if not all of that time. Instead, I'll be soaking up some sun and shooting lots of stock! I'll be back the end of August and will check in here then.

Should anything come up that you need assistance with, please write to us via the contact us link found at the bottom of the Adobe Stock Contributor Portal or via email to [email protected]. Someone will get back to you asap.

Stay safe and be well!

Mat Hayward

Have fun and sun

Looks like you had an awesome time. Your wife did a great job modeling.

Very nice presentation, Mat. Did you create it in Adobe software?

Nice to see you and Lea somehow managed to get in a bit of R&R while you were busy "working" on those new additions to your portfolio.

Give a tough job to a tough man, I always say, and clearly, this was one helluva tough job. Thanks for proving my point.

You can see some of the shots I snapped the first couple weeks I was gone here if interested: https://spark.adobe.com/page/GMbOYsGZ5vpQH/

Wonderful images, and great travel, I'm so envious :-D

I had to double check this was 2020, I didn't realise people were taking international holidays. us Aussies aren't allowed to do this. We can't even cross the border into neighbouring states!

Glad you had a great time and your wife is such a good sport!

Howdy Y'all!

I'm back in action full time and am working to get caught up on anything and everything I missed this past month. I hope you are all doing well. Let me know if there is anything urgent matters you need an assist on.

I spent my month off from Adobe Stock shooting stock...twisted right?

This is superb, amazingly tongue in cheek and such a fun read. You got some absolutely amazing pictures

Thanks Martha, yes...nothing but work on that trip...grueling.

Yeah, we all cried when we saw how grueling it was for you. Sad.

I used Adobe Spark for the presentation. If you have a Creative Cloud subscription, it's included and does all sorts of fun stuff. Well worth checking out and giving it a try in my opinion.

Thanks for that tip. I'm not familiar with Spark but will check it out.

Awesome photos! But now you're just discouraging contributors to submit their work, there's no way they can beat these views.

Zalee · « **Reply #17 on:** August 29, 2020, 03:18 »

Loved it! And so jealous to get to go overseas... another Aussie here waiting to visit my family...

Asthebelltolls · « **Reply #18 on:** August 29, 2020, 10:29 »

And just out of curiosity, Mat, any idea what the ratio of "pictures taken to pictures displayed" was? When I'm out cycling I usually come home with about 100 images taken. From there approximately 5 are submitted to agencies. It would also be interesting to learn what kind of gear you're using. Regardless, thanks for sharing!

Dear Mat, will it be possible for Adobe stock to consider accepting editorial images (with visible people) from contributors ? Around 80% of my port is editorial but I cannot upload anything here. Any updates regarding this issue would be helpful.

Rage · « **Reply #21 on:** September 01, 2020, 03:17 »

+1 this would definitely be a huge game changer. Both in photos and videos

EIPHOTO · « **Reply #23 on:** September 28, 2020, 16:15 »

Editorial for Adobe Stock would be great. Obviously you have your premiere editorial branch with Reuters content etc. However there is a huge market for editorial content within the standard micro stock platforms and subscriptions.

Many clients would not be able to license images at the higher prices involved with the premier platforms, but this is usually made up for in volume. There is a huge market and opportunity for a company such as Adobe with already a huge subscriber base to license editorial images within the standard micro stock subscription models. The volume and need for such content within the standard regular micro stock model is enormous and always growing.

This would be a win win for Adobe and the content suppliers.
