I asked a few of our stock photography experts for copies of their best-selling images and am including them below.
A few of our Breakfast Stock Club readers also sent in their best-selling images so I’m including them below, too.
** From stock photographer Andrea Gingerich…
“This is my best selling image of all time:
“I think this photo sells because it has the potential to be used in a number of ways. It evokes a positive feeling to the person viewing the image because the models are looking directly into the camera and appear to have a connection of friendship. There is no doubt that photos of people have the potential to be top sellers because they are used often in design. This photo is no different.”
** From stock photographer Danny Warren…
“This is my current best-seller…
“I think this photo sells well because it portrays a high demand subject (outdoor recreation) in a recognizable location (Mt. Rainier National Park). The interesting low-angle view and reflection in the water add an element of uniqueness that make this photo stand out from others like it.”
** From Breakfast Stock Club member Phill Danze…
“My best seller has earned over $500 in commissions. It was taken a few years ago when starting out. The isolation has issues but it still sells regularly; the concept is clear and traverses many buyer/themes/uses.”
** From Breakfast Stock Club member Caroline Maryan…
“This image has sold 18 times on 3 different websites. It’s quirky, but can apply to science or medicine, run amok.”
