Jonathan Ross has been a long time supporter and customer at LookStat and I’m delighted to be able to congratulate him and his network of top notch photographers on the launch of a new RM/RF stock Agency, Spaces Images. The collection is initially available at Corbis.
The collection is focused on images of human environments (interiors, locations etc) that have nobody in them. There are some fantastic shots in the collection and it’s well worth your time to check them out. Jonathan’s long experience in RM/RF helped him discover an opportunity for shots without people in them and he created Spaces to take advantage of it.
LookStat’s Role
We provided a Back Office platform that allowed Jonathan & his contributors to focus on creating the images and shaping the collection while we handled keywording, property releases, metadata, image conversion and distribution. We simplified the submission process for contributors and greatly reduced infrastructure & technology costs for Spaces.
It’s a pleasure working with Jonathan & the team of contributors at Spaces and we’re looking forward to the success and growth of the collection in the days to come.
If you are interested in how our comprehensive Back Office solution can help you, please contact us for more information.
Congrats on having your image plastered on the home page of iStock this week, Steve!
Steve (who is a Diamond Exclusive at iStock) also has a great post on his blog about working with us. Thanks for the plug, Steve. We’re excited to be working with you too.
Well, I’ve got a great accountant & I hire a good stylist as I need one. So I wised up & starting sending my images to LookStat – they add all the metadata, keywords & descriptions. LookStat handles the releases & then uploads the images & releases to my agency, istockphoto. If you use more than one agency they can upload to multiple agencies as well.
It’s so easy, I shoot, adjust my images then send the images to LooksStat via ftp. Done.
I don’t think we could have said it better ourselves – thanks Steve!
If you’d like to see what it’s like to only have to focus on creating your images, please contact us for a free trial.
We have been working with Ron Chapple Studios and they were nice enough to share their thoughts on our services.
“We find the team at LookStat to be incredibly efficient, communicative, and responsive to our needs. LookStat clearly cares about their clients. Not only do they take care of your images, but they work hard to stay informed with the latest information about SEO, stock sites and metadata. We highly recommend their services.”
