Thanks for your response, Charles. I am interested in both, but selling and licensing regarding this question. A "list" is specifically what I've seen requests for when a gallery isn't. I'm just wondering how best to organize my list. In one example I saw only text, no images, but there were categories and subcategories. The example didn't really help with my type of work though, which is why I'd like to see a couple more examples.

Hi everyone! Just looking at approaching some publications with my work, but most require you to provide a stock photo list. I did a Google search, but all I managed to turn up are stock photo companies. I'd just like to see a few examples to understand how to categorize and lay it all out. Does anyone have any resources to share? If it helps, my subjects are mostly in the travel, landscape, hiking, outdoors, and cityscapes, but I do have more.

<p>Anyone else want to chime in here? :)</p>

<p>Hi Brian, <br /><br />Thanks for your response! Can you explain what a proof sheet is exactly? Is that like what I was asking about with collecting my online work in a sort of tear sheet? Or is it a collection of thumbnails of some of my work? Sorry, this area of business is new to me!</p>

<p>So, it's taken me a lot of time to get up the courage to approach a publication with a submission. Now that I'm ready to do it, I want to do it right.<br> I have work all over the place, from travel blogs (popular blogs featuring my work, as well as my own) to small business ads, but most of it is online. I've been following the specific guidelines requested by the company and they want "slides, prints, photocopies, tear sheets...", etc. as most do, but they want it by snail mail. I'm wondering how I can best present my work given the physical mail component. <br> I have made up a little promo piece that is quite nice, but other than that I'm at a loss. Should I collect a bunch of my images and list them in thumbnails or simply refer them to my online portfolio? Should I collect some work I've done online and create a sort of digital tear sheet that I print out? Just curious how others are approaching this now and if anyone has examples to share?<br> Thanks in advance! I need to get this thing out before I get discouraged again! :)</p> <p> </p>

<p>Anyone? Any ideas? </p>

<p>Hi everyone. Just wanted some advice on how to charge for one of my images. I'm generally a wedding/portrait photographer to earn money, and I think I've got the magazine rates down, but this is new to me...<br> A top city tourist and local attraction wants to use a photo of mine. When asked specifically for what, they replied: "...8,000 posters and 8,000 brochures, and 500 postcards, as well as featured on line in web ads etc. when the format works. In addition it would be one of the images submitted to local publishers with Press releases." <br> I have no clue how to charge for something like this since the distribution is smaller and more localized, and because there are both posters and smaller print products. I found this: <a href="http://photographersindex.com/price-adv-calc.htm">http://photographersindex.com/price-adv-calc.htm</a> but it doesn't have anything for posters. <br> I should also mention that I approached them with the image and they first offered up photo credit and some tickets to their attraction. I was surprised that after my reply saying that they could BUY my image depending on the specifics, they wrote back asking for my rates. In other words, I'm worried about pricing too high and losing out completely. Since I don't normally do this kind of work, I'm happy to get suggestions on the low end or at least find out what the range would be. <br> Thank you!<br> Tracie</p>
