Millennium


Following up on Millennium Images' request to send in a collection of pictures, I have been pulling together a portfolio of square images over the last couple of days. It was a good opportunity to go through the whole collection of negatives again and rescan many of them. I've selected a set of about 85 square pictures.

A word about Millennium Images. A recent article in f2 Freelance Photographer magazine tells us "Millennium is committed to contemporary photography with a strong individual style, favouring photographers' personal work." They operate like a standard picture library, selling the reproduction rights to photographers' work and keeping 50% of the proceeds. They don't represent photographers exclusively but work with image exclusive contracts for three years. Photographers can continue to sell prints and use the pictures in their portfolios, books and websites. Millennium is a small library with a specialised clientele. Their biggest sales area is fiction book covers (rather than advertising).

Let's see how they react to this portfolio. I wouldn't mind seeing one of my pictures gracing the cover of a nice Penguin Modern Classic ...
