| "I would like to personally express my appreciation for Photographers Direct. Not to in any way slight other similar agencies or photo services, I am just very impressed with the consistent quality (and accuracy) of images provided by Photographers Direct. They are always thoughtfully edited, professionally shot and submitted in a very timely manner - and I appreciate the updates, as well. I know our deadlines as researchers have become profoundly short on more than just a once-in-a-while basis and our needs are challenging. Our requests are often obscure and difficult to match up with the appropriate visuals, so it is a great pleasure to receive so many images, so fast, that so often 'fit the bill'." Diane Austin, Freelance Photo Editor and Researcher Some recent examples: - Griselda Gambaro, Argentinean playwright - empowered women involved in protests internationally - Gate of San Sebastian del Pastelillo, Cartegena So, if you are having trouble finding images, why not give it a try? Photographers Direct - Fair Trade Photography. |
