RECENT TESTIMONIALS a word about giving back
I am a big fan of positive feed back and professional incite. I believe this is the truest form of giving back to the usually cut throat photography industry. Recently I was pleasantly surprised to receive a few formal kind words regarding the work we do. Also, I've included links to their great work! Thank you.
“Chris is an amazing stock photography talent! His images are done with beautiful and artistic precision. He is great asset to iStock community. Make sure to check his work; for sure there is image in his portfolio to fit your needs. Congrats on soon-to be Diamond!!” - zorani - Exclusive iStock Artist
“Excellent portfolio!” - Kusma - i Stock artist
My curiosity got the best of me and I actually contacted highly regarded Chase Jarvis for some incite, a photographer I've looked up to and respected for always stating he gives back to the photography community. This was his response:
"hey chris: i get at least 40 such requests each day, so i'm unable to make anybody happy in this regard. wish i had the time - hope you understand. but keep shooting. hope we cross paths someday." - Chase
As I said to him, I understand he's busy, as am I...I had red bull for breakfast this morning and I'm not kidding. I'll just say this. Photography (even microstock photography) is big enough for everyone, take every opportunity to answer questions and inspire and yes even promote those you look up to in this work and we'll all benefit. In the end, your work will sell itself.
Chris

I have seen the light. Chase is a good photographer and a great marketer (I don't think that is even a word)
