"Amazing Course!

I've just completed the course, it is well explained and worth the investment. This course really provides whatever it says and I always love courses from Robert. He is a great instructor."

"Stock Photo Ninja!

Mr. Scot's course is direct and perfectly informative, taught with passion and a knack for getting to the crux of the subject matter. As a life-long point-and-shoot photographer, Mr. Scot has changed the way I shoot my pictures, and has opened my eyes to the money that can be made by turning my love for shooting into passive income. THANK YOU!" _________________________________________________________________________

I take you from the inside of the camera to the inside of the stock photo agency business.

After a section on the ingenious mechanics of the camera, this course concentrates on how to sell those high-quality photos you've taken.

In this course, I teach you how to turn your love of photography into long-term, passive income.

Today is the day to start; there's NEVER been a more profitable or more accessible time to sell your photos to stock photography agencies.

When I started shooting stock photography with my Canon AE1, back in the 1980s, getting your photos sold through stock photo agencies required an extraordinary and expensive effort - from shooting to developing the photos to finding the agencies to getting approved.

The process has become much simpler these days - but the competition is fierce.

By sticking to the basics - and establishing a work-flow that ensures that you're creating the highest quality images in the appropriate format - you can quickly move to the head of the line - and start selling your photos right away.

_________________________________________________________________________

I shoot with a Nikon D800 - a truly remarkable photographic tool - but these days, there are high-quality smart phones that have what it takes to capture world-class images.

It's NOT about the camera! The key to making money in the stock photo business is your creativity, and attention to detail.

This course is designed to save you money and time - by discussing specifically what the top stock photo agencies expect - AND what they reject

I discuss which categories are hot, and which are not.

And, I list not only my favorite stock photo agencies to work with (and who are willing to work with YOU), but I've included a downloadable, clickable .pdf list of links to more than two dozen agencies to whom YOU should be submitting.

Now, let me be clear, this is NO get-rich-quick scheme. You'll need to commit yourself to a substantial amount of effort and detailed diligence. But, follow my plan step by step, and you will have your photos uploaded and optimized, and selling in no time.

It is very informative! I wonder how much I will retain. I reserved the best score to the end of course when I will know how in depth the instruction is. After finishing the course I still find it an excellent introduction for a beginner. I know I learned valuable information that will come in handy.

The instructor was very knowledgeable about the subject. This is a good beginner course for photographers as it focuses a lot on how to take photos and functions of the camera. The information on actual stock photo tips was limited and seemed to be common sense to someone who is experienced in photography. I think more examples of photos and what makes a good photo would be helpful. Overall there was a lot of useful information.

He is addressing basic camera operations The course advertised selling photographs, not basic photography.

This course is just general info , that you can find anywhere, the instructor does not give you what he shoots and what category that best sells, cause actually he does not have any stock photos online lol , he just has 2 photos in istock photo ... so don't waste your time with this course. I'm requesting a refund. And anyway all info are old ways which do not work anymore , similar to lots of marketing courses where they teach you old secrets , that does not work anymore.

Really interesting course, starting with a short summary of basic photography knowledge and then covering the important issues to look out for when submitting stock photography. Looking forward to the submission of my first pictures!

The beginning of Robert Scot's "Photography Ninja" starts out promising, because he demonstrates that he is a professional, not just an Internet marketer who decided to make and sell a course on a hot topic. The course also starts out on a good note, because Mr. Scot gives an excellent crash course in how a camera works, and the importance of aperture, shutter speed, iso, and of course light... However, when the actual "meat" of the course is delved into, the subject matter becomes flat, repetitive, commonsensical, and excrutiatingly boring. I think Robert Scot is a genuine guy who means well, but I gained absolutely nothing out of this course that I didn't already know from common sense and a basic Google search of "How to Make Money with Stock Photography." I'm definitely requesting a refund for this, even at a discounted rate - had I paid the full amount for this course I would have been super irate.

Although the instructor seems genuine and a great person, I found I went through most of the course getting very basic information. Even the last few lectures were rehashes of what you'd read from a stock agency's submission requirements. I can't say that I can recommend this course--certainly not at full price.

Lots of useful information regarding how stock agencies work and what they are looking for (and not looking for). With help from this course, I recently got my first image accepted by and agency and will revisit this course to reinforce what I learned.

A very well put together course. It is filled with tips and tricks on how to start and what you need to do (and not to do) to beckome a stock photographer. I liked the presentation not just lightening the positive sides but also all the work required. Sound was bad from time to time but no problem hear whats said. Instructor knows his theme from the heart, not just reading from a paper. I think the lecture about aperture, mirrors could be left out.. it didnt fit in with rest of the course and ppl who take this cours should know their camera before start a course like this. All and all a very good experience

I highly recomend this course.I've learnt a lot of how is supposed to be a stock Photo and is incredible useful as I'm thinking about using agencies to sell pictures, but as I'm a videomaker, too It would be nice to know something about video too in the stock world, some tendencies, etc. Thank you for passing your wisdom and experience Mr Scot.

The trouble with this author and a LOT of other Udemy authors (new and old alike) is that they essentially create spoken podcasts with scrolling text and headlines... there is ABSOLUTELY NO SANE REASON to buy this course as a "VIDEO" series... nothing to see here folks! If I wanted a podcast, there are waaayyyy better podcasts than this one! MY ADVICE: Go join a few of the great photography forums online and invest your time in some of the GREAT photographers who produce amazing, high-quality "FREE" videos on Youtube. All you get here folks is a guy (with a dull, monotone voice) saying the same tired thing over and over and over... "do great work and do great work and do great work." So... there you have it... I've just summed up this entire course and saved you the cost of paying for this series. Maybe this author should take a few courses on proper video presentation and a course or two on creating great videos before trying to take advantage of the Udemy folks' eagerness to learn - NOT - their pocketbooks! Right now you're probably saying how I can be so harsh... that this can't ALL be true... that it's ridiculous of me to say something like this... after all, he ALSO claims to be a PRO video teacher on Udemy, too. Well... if you need more a more convincing testimonial than this (from his open and "UNPAID" solicitation to get a review), spend you money and time to prove me wrong. Maybe this will prompt at least one Udemy course author to do a better job... hint, hint ;-O
