I’ve had my images on the web via one site or another for about 7 or 8 years now; I used to use Flickr, then I got my own photoblog, then my own portfolio, then through Photoshelter, then finally I stopped paying the subscription to Flickr. I’ve tried many times to push selling my images as prints, either by using the Fotomoto plugins on my photoblog or advertising them via my websites. I’ve considered signing up to stock agencies but they pay very little and demand a lot of content, which I could shoot if I wanted, but I don’t want to as it would suck every last drop of fun out of photography for me.<\/p>\n

In those 7-8 years I can count on one hand the number of people I’ve sold prints to – my biggest sale was to a brewery chain who wanted local images of Putney to use in The Boathouse pub<\/a>. I get a lot of business from people wanting to commission their own shoots, but practically none wanting to buy a print. However, every so often someone comes by my website from a search for ‘London prints’ or something similar, so I figured I should make it clear to them that I do<\/em> sell prints and license images, and that with the exception of my movie stills work, nearly every<\/em> image on this particular site is available to buy as a print.<\/p>\n

Simply get in touch<\/a>, tell me what image you’re thinking of, what sort of size you’d like, where you are based, and I’ll cost it up and quote you a price – my prints are made by Spectrum Photographic<\/a> and while they are not as cheap as a crappy Snappy Snaps rush job, they are archival quality and worth every penny.<\/p>\n

Also, feel free to browse my portfolio<\/a>; there are less images in there that are available for sale, but you might find things you missed on this site.<\/p>\n

Thanks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
