Stock Photography FAQ

How has Stock Photography changed over the years?

Initially the images which ended up in stock photography libraries were usually out-takes from assignments.  These images were never taken very seriously in the advertising world and usually ended up just being sold for use in textbooks (Pickerell, 1994).  With the surge in popularity in using stock photography during the late-eighties, this practice changed considerably.  Today stock photography frequently needs to be shot specifically for stock use (Pickerell, 1992a).
