Am I a generalist?



Shooting for stock agencies works best when you shoot a lot assuming you are like me a generalist, I find it interesting when I come across spontaneous photo opportunities. The key is to keep on shooting maybe the first shot will be the one you choose but keep on shooting anyway.
I know a lot of you will disagree about the whole generalist concept but I really find it hard to pick only one side among the numerous most beautiful sides of photography.
I love still life shoots but I also love the natural world specially when you wake up early to take pictures at sunrise, oh yes how can I not love portraits.
I surely can not miss portraying the glorious human nature with its awesome and endless expressions.
I enjoy being a generalist when it comes to photography and will continue in doing so.

  1. I found you on the Alamy mailing list. I just got started with stock photography and often wonder what to photograph. Perhaps, though, I don't have to focus on any one thing. Perhaps I can be a generalist, too, at least as far as stock photography goes.

    Thank you for the food for thought.

  2. Thats a great way to start in stock photography. because you never know whats gonna sell, I have sold images never thought they will sell.
    sure you can have a distinctive style in every agency you join but at least you keep your options open
