"Your site makes it easy for me to find what I need. Compared to the
organization of other stock photography sites, I know I can save time by looking on BigStockPhoto and spend less time searching for the perfect picture.
At Family Education Network (http://www.fen.com) we use stock
photography from BigStockPhoto across our network of websites for
parents, teachers, and kids. You'll see BigStockPhoto pictures in the
kids' blog on unbrain.com and in various feature spots on Family Education.com and TeacherVision.com.
In addition to the great quality of the work featured on their site, the price cannot be beat. Some stock photography sites will charge you well over $100 per photo. BigStockPhoto has a pricing guide that has allowed us to be more liberal in our photo choices." |

"I am truly honored to be the winner, and even more so surprised as I think there are many much better photographers here at BigStockPhoto. I don't consider myself a professional, and the only reason of my success I can think of is that I try to take pictures of the subjects I feel passionate about - beautiful moments of life and people I
really like - my friends and family, who I want to see happy and beautiful.
I am very grateful to the founders of this website, who give us not only opportunity to earn money and learn new skills, but make our work seen and used, which is the reward by itself. " |

BigStockPhoto 1 Millionth Image
"I just discovered BigStockPhoto a couple of weeks ago, but I am quite excited about the whole concept. I feel that contributing to this site's catalog is a great opportunity for me to let my pictures reach an audience, and I feel that I can gain a lot of experience as a photographer both regarding what sells or not, but also in meeting and sharing knowledge with other photographers in the forums. I study
photography full time at the moment and I look at this business as a part of my training in a way. The community feels like a big family and you feel welcome by both members and admins.
I also want to take this opportunity and give some credit to the staff who built and manage BigStockPhoto. I am a member of quite a few stockphoto sites but BSP is definitely one of my favorites. The upload process is one of the fastest and easiest in the game and the review time on submitted photos are really fast and accurate. The times I have been rejected, I have agreed fully with the reviewer's opinion."
