iStockphoto Download #10,000
Today marks a milestone in my stock photography. Just a little while ago this image of Jenna as a school teacher sold on iStockphoto.com marking my 10,000th photo sold on the popular stock photography website. This advances me to a Gold Level contributor and not only entitles me to a higher royalty payment percentage, but I am now eligible to also sell my stock photography via Getty Image's (the parent company of iStockphoto) royalty free collection.
Shooting and selling stock images has grown over the past year from a small part of my photography to becoming the major focus. During that time the income I receive from sales has increased to where it is now the majority of my monthly revenue.
I look forward to the year ahead as I now set my sights on iStock's Diamond Level of 25,000 downloads.

Congratulations Rich! That is very cool news. I was wondering if you would be willing to share your experiences with iStockphoto. Since the prices are so low it seems on iStockphoto, I have been hesitant to put images up there and so would like to hear more on how you feel about it all, esp. for a newbie. Best wishes!
Woo Hoo!! Congrats!
Congratulations, Rich! 10.000 was many work for sure but it pays off!
Congratulations! You're an inspiration. As soon as I get that new camera! ;)
Congrats Rich. I admire your dedication and time spent to build up a respectable and usable library to sell. I wish I could get myself to do the same!
