But everyone you describe is still under some sort of time limit that (at some time or another) forces them to send pics from the field. So how do they do it? That's really what I'm after here. | |

That is, prior to an event they've already established a relationship with a publishing entity who expects images from them when hard news occurs in their area. Though many news agencies now use stock for a lot of their stories, most of that usage is outside of their coverage of hard news. For that they either use freelancers, wire services, or agencies like Gannett that are set up for hard news. I'm not sure shutterstock is a player in that arena. | |
