INFORMATION FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS

Thank you for your interest in DDB Stock Photography, LLC. We are always interested in adding new talent to the 109 professional photographers we currently represent. We need to refresh our files on a continuous basis and show new perspectives from new photographers. We are a dynamic, growing agency, not a static one resting on old laurels. We aren't content to simply lease our current file of ca. 500,000 color transparencies and 15,000 black and white prints. We want new, current, vibrant pictures from new, highly talented photographers working their way up through the legions of the average. You must be a professional photographer to submit. We represent only true professionals. It's an extremely competitive world out there and only a professional photographer can compete successfully. Please stop reading now if you don't:

• have at least 20,000 images from Latin America and the Caribbean on file, or;
• are a working professional shooting regularly in Latin America and the Caribbean, or;
• have several assignments to shoot Latin America and the Caribbean this year and next.

We represent professional photographers from throughout the USA and Latin America. We are interested in all Mexican, Central American, South American and Caribbean subjects. We also need a great variety of pictures that depict Hispanic culture in the USA, especially from areas with large Hispanic populations like California, Texas and Florida. The largest growth sector of our market was travel, but high fuel prices and devaluation of the dollar have shrunk that market. We have fallen back on trade and text book publishers who are relatively unaffected by economic ups and downs. The trade and textbook market is very large, but it's also demanding, highly focused, strongly buffeted by intense cultural normalization and increasingly restricted geographically. We can and will teach you to shoot for the textbook market if you are interested.

Our general subject needs may be reviewed HERE but you will do well to review the statistics we make available to you on client interest and use because that's what they really need and are really using. Many of those statistics are included in the hyperlink above.
