Like most photo buyers, you've probably developed a list of favorite photographers and photo agencies who you regularly ask to scour their respective stock photo archives to find images that meet your requirements.
What if you had a tool that is as simple to use as email, but also extends your reach putting you in contact with a global network of photographers and agencies, who after submitting images for your consideration, would aggregate their responses into one simple interface for you to review?
Moreover, what if when you found the images that you liked rather than having to contact multiple sources to license the images, you could put all of your images in one cart and purchase them in one download?
Today we are very happy to introduce Digital Railroad Research Network™.
Research Network gives buyers the opportunity to communicate directly with the photographers and agencies who know their digital and analogue archives the best.
What buyers are already saying:
“Digital Railroad's Marketplace performed beautifully from the first day I used it. The Research Network enhancement will be only short of miraculous, hooking me up with superb photographers’ personal image libraries worldwide when I need to find that one perfect image for tough book cover concepts.”
Deborah Grahame, Editor, Marshall Cavendish/Benchmark
“Research Network is very exciting and innovative; our team will definitely be able to use this feature. As you know, it's always tough to find the perfect image, especially for our wide range in client base. It's an excellent idea for us to work directly with the individual photographers – an awesome enhancement which will be greatly beneficial to our business.”
Sarah Clay, Account Manager, Avenue A | Razorfish
“Digital Railroad’s Research Network sounds like a great new service. I’m looking forward to using it for those hard-to-find images!”
Lori Barbely, Photo Editor, ISLANDS Magazine
“Research Network appears to be the “missing link” if you will! How fabulous to contact photographers directly for their cache of existing work. Excellent solution!”
Amy Blasen Rivera, Art Producing Manger, DDB Los Angeles
“Finally, a way to reach a diverse group of independent photographers and small agencies with a single research request!
Jen Pouech Art, Coordinator, Alfred A. Knopf/ Random House
