Thank you Todd for this great video. I hope that the damage to your house from the hurricane will be repaired soon. All the best.

Thank you!!

Appreciate you showing your work flow. Always good to see how others do it. Your white seamless roll is huge (wide). Who do you use as a suplier? Thanks.

[@Todd_Kuhns]

The seamless is the 107” width. I get seamless from Spartan Photo Center which is in my town. $80. The issue with seamless cost is shipping it if you can’t go get it. Very pricey.

Thank you for the video. What camera stand do you use?

[@Todd_Kuhns]

Thanks for watching. That stand is an Arkay mono stand jr. it’s an oldie that I got from a photo school I used to teach at. You can buy similar ones still. Look up studio camera stand.

Hi Todd.....Thanks for taking the time to make this video. One thing that I would like to ask you, is how does someone break into Stock Photography, for example is there a website that someone can go on? Thanks again for the video, Bob

[@Todd_Kuhns]

Breaking in is fairly easy. Sign up as a contributor and get started. They will ask you to send in 5-10 initial images before you are approved but once you are you can upload as you wish. I highly recommend adobe stock to start. Shutterstock was always good but their royalties have gone way down in recent years. All the best to you. Let me know how it goes!

@@Todd_Kuhns Thanks again, and I hope that all is going well with the house.

[@Todd_Kuhns]

Slow but sure. We will get there.

I sometimes shoot stock photos. Now customers can easily create such photos by using AI tools. :( Thanks for the video.
