My Stock Photography Bible

Rohn Engh's book SELL & RE-SELL YOUR PHOTOS was what got me started in stock. I practically memorized it. In the end I took a big pile of his advice ... followed the steps he laid out and got started. I have been shooting and selling stock ever since and actually ended up writing 4 source books on WHERE to sell your photos.

When I got started, I specialized in shooting GARBAGE and built a huge file of "people at work."

You heard me correctly ... yes I did say garbage. It was at a time when toxic waste and dump sites were in the news constantly. Not many people shot heaps of garbage, or visited toxic disposal sites. I did. GREAT sales!

AND I also sold ... wildlife, scenics and all the stuff I was passionate about taking pics of.

I STILL love Rohn Engh's book. He has some very good advice and helps you look at stock as a business. He has a more moderate view of the industry than many of the other "how to" stock books I have on my bookshelf. Yes, he sells the "dream" and he also talks about the "reality of the business." A great combination.

BUY THE BOOK ... it's a stock photographer's blueprint for success! If you are going to be in this business it is a MUST HAVE.
