My WEIRDEST photo sales on Shutterstock

I so appreciate this video because I’ve been wanting to do something like this! Thank you so much for sharing! I think this is the best video yet that I have seen!

I love your humour. Not sure the toe is for medical reasons... maybe someone has a foot fetish.

Did she buy more high heels with that money LOL!!

Interesting. I remember seeing a while back that my town of 100k had almost no photos or videos on stock footage sites and the ones that were actually there being pretty underwhelming. I figured there probably just wasn't a lot of demand for them but now I know that those hyperspecific photos can fill a unique niche which can be lucrative. Other people always say that you should be more like the competition but these cases prove the opposite can also be true. Although I obviously don't know the real rate at which your weird photos get downloaded.

😂What keywords did you use to sell your toe? 😮 Think we can call you the keyword genius hahaha 😂

Speaking of WEIRD, a pic of my dad's grey hair (that I snapped TODAY) just got APPROVED!😃😆
For those who are curious, my display name is 'Miscell'!🙂

Today, Shutterstock approved my pic of our home utensils!😃
My display name is 'Miscell'!😀
(Got 20+ pics in my portfolio)

how do you stop getting rejected on Shutterstock

Thank you so much for sharing these information with us. Wish you all the best for your journey

How could you upload a photo with a brand name on it?

I’m from WV & loved hearing you say Harpers Ferry 😊 great video with some great ideas.

As a grahic designer I buy photos that might work for placing text rather than a nice photo, So table tops, walls with detail around them but the center not having mcuh going on and things like that.

How are you getting brand names like Mountain Dew and Lysol into your shutterstock portfolio? Did you need a consent form?

great video thank you

I think I know you from salsa

Why do you not get not approved when your content includes brand names?

Fun videos . You’re awesome

Foot fetish 😂😂😂

Hi Nicole, great vid as usual....quick question, was the video of the Marriott editorial or commercial? did you need a property release?

Do they pay you via PayPal?

I'm not sure she is being honest. You cannot upload content with name brands or company names logos etc. Unless it is for editorial content and I doubt she got paid that amount. Most likely that is what it sold for and she got paid cents on the dollar. Probably made more on this video than on shutterstock.

I've had problems getting photos approved by Shutterstock. I've only got photos up on Adobe, which of course doesn't pay well at all and hard to get bites. Does Shutterstock prefer unedited photos? What is the trick to get photos approved by Shutterstock?

This is hilarious yet genius hahah

lmao @ "But why my toe?" ...Great vid Nicole!

Great channel. I should dig out my pictures of my spinal fusion lol. How does the pricing work? do you put the price on the picture or video or does shutterstock arrange that?

Wow, WTF, I’m going to be rich !! I never thought to upload all my random pics…. My toes are 100x worse than your BTW.

The weirdest photo (0,25$): I was bored and I shot a photo of the shadow of my hand with my iPhone in it. Someone from Paris bought it. The most money (80$) for one picture I got with a photo of a US Army Black Hawk... I mean I shot this photo in Austria and someone from the US bought it... WHY?! Don‘t you have thousands of those over there...?😇

Hi Nicole do you get the property release from the drone video? Thanks

Was your Lysol photo commercial or editorial?

Did you need a release for the hotel video?

Do you need permission to photograph named products?

I stubbed my toe recently and I was inspired by this video to capture it. Don't worry though my toe is in much worse shape! Much much worse!!

Did you need a release from Fairfield Inn?

Expensive toe!

love you thanks so encouraging and interesting

Super

Questions: Were you required by Shutterstock to get consent forms for the hotel video and trademarked products (dryer sheets and Lysol)? And did you have to provide one for your toe, even though it was yours? Thank you. Chuck

Fascinating!

Me: at four minutes and thirty seconds taking off my socks and looking at my feet! LOL

Do you have to have permission to take these kinds of images in CVS or other stores, or are they "stealth"? iPhone or DSLR?

Stay away from Quentin Tarantino!

I swear I’ve seen that video on a Fairfield in commercial!

so what you're saying is i can make a ton of money off one my toenail that grows weirdly????

Sometimes, our weirdest pics need someone subject

Afterr I saw you got 100$ for the toe, I hurt my girlfriend and did coouple fotos, but I didnt upload them for yet

Im getting 0,10$ per photo 😌

Forgive my rudeness but you have beautiful hair hidden by a beret

Hummm... I need to start wearing heels....

can I upload a picture of my micropenis?

Did you need to erase the brand of the dryer sheet? Also the video for fairfield hotel was uploaded as editorial?
