I've worked with many art directors over the years and I've seen how desperate they get when they are having trouble finding the photos they need.

So I came up with a way I think will benefit both clients and photographers.

The idea is simple. Next time you plan to do a shoot, post the details on-line. Clients who are looking for something similar can find your photo shoot and ask for small adjustments based on what you're already shooting. This would make the client happy because they have the specific photo they need for their project, and of course, it's good for you because you'll shoot the photos that someone already wants to buy. You deal with the client directly so it's up to you how much you want to charge for your photos.

We call this concept a LiveShoot, Check it out on focalpool.com and let me know what you think.

General Stock Discussion / Exciting News! We've launched FocalPool
« on: February 04, 2015, 20:23 »
Weve spent the last year creating FocalPool.com. Its a brand new stock marketplace and collaborative platform that does things differently than the current photo agencies.

It does three things that would benefit photographers.

First, photographers have complete control over their work. They self-represent their own content by remain the copyright holder and the licensor. Each photographer decides which images to upload, how to license/price, and when to publish or un-publish.

Second, There is no middleman/agency. This platform was built from ground up to allow direct sales and interaction between photographers and clients. Photographers will have complete insight about how discoverable their photos are, and what is in demand. Moreover, there is an open communication and networking between clients and photographers.

Third, photographers will take home 80%-90% from their sales because our business model is different from current agency business models. There are no contracts or subscriptions.

As I said before, Im involved with FocalPool so ask me any questions that you might have.

Thanks
