A new service for creatives that takes the schlep out of searching for images, has been launched in South Africa and globally. Clients simply post a brief for an image request and a global network of over 3000 professional photographers, including over 100 locally, responds to the request.
ImageBrief is ‘a smart alternative to traditional stock libraries as it offers a way to connect directly to photographers’ largely untapped catalogues of existing shots, gives the buyer control of the pricing and cuts out hours of image search time’.
An attractive feature is that it costs nothing to launch a brief and you only pay if you get the right shot.
