Title: Ambitious goal - help me with suggestions, please
Post by: bbettina on October 23, 2007, 22:16
I have been on Shutterstock since mid-April of this year and am very happy overall with my experience there (and my dlds).  My near-term goal is to have a reliable 1000 downloads per month (now its mote like 350).  Could you guys take a look at my portfolio and suggest ways to achieve that (beside the obvious - need more pictures.  I just had two really good photo shoots but am uploading slowly to keep the momentum)?

Thanks gals and guys.

Make more pictures with the attractive couple (your parents?) and teenager (your daughter?). Since you don't have the setup for isolated on white shots, you should focus all your attention on capturing these models doing everyday things. Once you get the hang of it you will easily surpass 1000 DLs/month!

Hi Sharply:

thanks for your suggestions.  I am going to my newly rented studio later to take more pics of my teenage model (my sons baby-sitter) ;-)
