Stock Photography is Out

I know it’s really easy to just go to a stock photography site and pick out a quick stock photo for your project but you may be hurting yourself more than you realize. Yeah, it looks good, but stock photography is easy to spot and gives a disingenuous vibe. People buy from people, not models. I would recommend forming a relationship with a local photographer and including their fee as part of your web projects. Here is a photo taken by my partner in photography (leavethecamera.com). It looks good but it also looks real. It’s the best of both worlds and it only tacked a couple hundred to the cost of the project. Well worth it.
