A new focus on microstock with our Travel Workshops

Learn how to grow a small channel of earnings to support your passion in both travel and photography.

here's an article for inspiration
http://www.microstockdiaries.com/traveling-the-world-with-microstock.html

Holger Mette, a former Australian lawyer, has been travelling around the world for the past three years.
For the first two years of travel, microstock earnings have been a good subsidizing income for his travel expenses. Right now (in the past year), his royalty earnings from microstock have grown to be able to pay fully for his current travel costs.


You may not be nuts enough to quit your career to travel the globe for years. but it will be nice to have a growing source of microstock earnings from your travel shoots.

Join our workshop to learn more about this. :)

Important: We need to emphasize that shooting for microstock is really hard-work and takes lots of perseverance before you enjoy the results. It will take at least one year for almost all of us before you start to earn more than USD$1000 a month from microstock.
However, we do find it truly rewarding

email us at microstock@photoscholar.com if you like to find out more about shooting microstock

meanwhile, we hope to see you at our Travel Workshop on 5 September!
