Customer Reviews

A must for every photographer wishing to sell his work

First time I have heard about this "Bible of stock photography" was 4 years ago. I was a keen photo-enthusiast wishing to find markets for his work, which after going through this book and using it become a reality. It took a lot of effort and patience to go through the all entries, then choose and address final "matches", but finally it paid off. I have started to buy the book every year and allways found it very useful. It is really topic and kept "up-to-date" every year and the one for 2002 is not an extemption. Should there be only one book I will keep buying every year I know it is going to be this one. I do recommend it.

A Nice "Upgrade"

There are dozens of new buyers listed (across several markets), and new "advice columns" which have been updated to reflect recent trends in the industry. Further, they have made improvements to how the book is organized; navigating the various buyers listings is much easier. In short, a very useful and affordable reference tool for serious photographers.

Photographer's Market 2001

Photographer's Market is often refered to as the "Bible of stock photography" and this title actually fits quite well. This tremendeously valuable resource gives the photographer access to a wide market of photobuyers in all categories. Photographer's Market comes out with a new issue every year and there's always something new in every new issue. The latest one is no exception. Writer's Digest managed to find 480 new markets where photographers can sell their work in the 2001 edition. But, Photographer's Market is so much more than a mere listing of photobuyers. The book contains valuable information no photographer should be without. Things like information on names of people to contact at the various markets, how much the various photobuyers normally pay, what format they want submissions in as well as tips and hints. If you're only planning to invest in one photography book this year, do yourself a favor and make that book the 2001 edition of "Photographer's Market". Chances are you will get back the money you paid for the book faster than you can say "oups I didn't know that magazine had changed to accepting digital submissions this year..." For those of you out there who are thinking "I've been in this business for 20 years and know all there is to know", I must sadly inform you that you don't. New markets where photographers can offer, and sell, their images pops up all the time. One of the best ways to keep track of those markets is to make sure you get your yearly dose of Photographer's Market.

Very Useful Tool

I am a professional photographer who shoots stock images for use in the editorial and paper products markets. I have been using the Photographer's Market since 1992 and have always found it to be very useful in finding new markets. I find it very easy to use and I highly recomend it to anyone who wants (or needs) to find markets for their work.

Significant advance: Photographic marketing over the net!

Always an essential resource for the photographer in marketing work, this year there is a substantial new contribution over earlier editions in using the power of the web to market work. Earlier editions, available at used bookstores, don't have the power of the new edition, this time!
