Photography & Stock Photography:

Your two choices for filling up your site with graphics are finding stock photos and having a photographer take pictures. What is the difference you ask?

Stock Photography are photos from certain web sites such as iStock Photo, which allow you to buy photos of people, buildings, animals and just about anything you can think of. These photos are what you call royalty free which means a professional photographer has taken them and then sold the rights so that people can use them without having to pay the photographer each time.

Regular photography is what you see on an every day occurrence. You pay a photographer to take pictures of whatever you want and then he gives you copies but sometimes they maintain the rights to those photographs.

Pros & Cons:
Here are the pros and cons of both kinds of photography. Stock photography is usually cheaper if you can find what you want and you just need a few photographs. Hiring a photographer can be expensive but they can give you exactly the photos that you want. Hiring a photographers can also give a personal touch to your business. You most likely are not going to find a picture of your family on a stock photo web site. In the end it is up to you and how you want your web site to look, either way G2 Web Solutions can help you achieve it.
