And I thought October would be a good month on Shutterstock. 3 videos sold in a span of 2 days and now we're back to one or two photos a day at just thirty six cents a day. Luckily the month isn't over yet and isn't even a third of the way done. I hope that I sell a few more clips on Shutterstock and a few more on Pond5 and Videoblocks.
After work I took my drone out to fly for about half an hour. Got the footage and shots I wanted. It was actually a pretty good day today to take photos and videos. It was very foggy this morning and I got a few shots I wanted including the parliament buildings in the fog. I just have to edit and upload them to my three favourite micro stock sites tonight so they'll be available for sale in the next few days.
On a side note, I'll be going back to my previous employer starting next week to finish off a contract. I honestly do not like working where I am right now. The red tape is just amazing there. You can't fart without having a meeting about it.
The girlfriend and I will be moving at the end of the month and saving up money. April 2019 our plan is to move out of Ottawa. Neither of us speak French so getting a descent job is out of the question. Last year, I was in Calgary on a contract and I fell in love with the Rocky Mountains. I think our plan is to either move to Calgary or Kingston, Ontario. I prefer Calgary as there is hardly any French out there and the mountains are 45 minutes from the city.
So if anyone needs a full time photographer and you pay well, let me know. ;)
