Posted 28 Jan 2008 at 7:22 pm ¶nice list rob, one thing new and young photographers need to understand is pick an agent who is going to “carry your karma” meaning pick someone who is going to represent you and what you are all about. its not ALWAYS about the money but about building relationships and working on cool projects. your clients are NOT the VISAS, VERIZONS, AND NIKE of the world but the Cindy Rivets, Bill Hornstein’s, Jimmy Bonner’s, and Kim Hubbard’s. and sometimes some reps forget that. thank god mine is amazing and get’s it.!!~

@andy anderson,
So well said Andy. I have been repping for about 15 years and that personal connection and shared vision with my photographers has always been what energizes me to do an even better job. A shared style of a business approach and collective creative direction is what gives us a good long term relationship. “carry your karma” is the perfect way to say it.
Rob, please put me on your list for this great site of yours.

Posted 04 Jun 2008 at 3:59 pm ¶Hi –
I just came here after viewing your Promo Cards (thanks for that) and clicked on maybe about 15 to 20 of the links above to find that Every Single One started with Flash. I realize it’s a nice toy, but, are there any reps who want to put up their client’s work first (i.e., immediately) and allow the viewer to “opt in” or not to a Flash presentation? I think it was See Management that at least put up something to read.
Surely, since they want their clients’ work to stand out from the crowd, they would want their site to do so as well! I recently read a comment by some editor, somewhere, that they didn’t like Flash. I think I now understand why.
Anyway, thanks again for a really wonderful (and valuable) site here.

I ask this simply because I am considering becoming an agent for a collective of Photographers in Johannesburg.One of the greatest issues at hand is the splits between me the would be agent and the collective ( are there hard and fast rules to this ). Secondly are there any links that have guidelines out there on how i can best protect myself and the collective at large. Or rather does anyone have any insight into this
some sound advise would be appreciated

@Michele Karpe’,
Hello!
I am sorry that my website isn’t really up and running yet. I have lots of galleries on smugmug for events that I have photographed, and some portraits as well. I have some of my fine art on http://www.thousandwords.us, but I am currently searching for a good website designer, and graphic artist. My marketing plan will(hopefully) roll out next fall!
Would love sending you a disc. Let me know,
My best,
Cynthia

Hi,
Your list of agencies is very comprehensive and very well selected but if you could also add what area of photography each agent specializes in like travel portraiture, etc…, it would be helpful since it is pretty hard to go through all of them to find a suitable agent for one’s style of work.
I specialize in photojournalism and travel and found aurora close to my style.
Thanks and regards,
Ayush

Does anyone know of any dedicated architectural/interior photographer reps? I have been shooting interiors for real estate agents and designers for over 15 years and I have shot over 2,500 homes/commercial buildings.
I’m ready to hand everything over to a manager/rep so I can concentrate on the craft instead of the business side. Most of these agents have amazing talent in their roster, but most of them concentrate on fashion and lifestyle…
Thank you in advance to anyone with any information or advice!

Posted 13 Apr 2009 at 5:36 pm ¶For Rob or any of the photography reps who may read this thread, a question: what exactly does “keep in touch” mean?
I’ve found this list quite helpful and have gotten a lot of positive e-mail responses to my work, but, as expected, most are not taking on new talent in this economy. Most of the responses have indicated interest in my work when then economy is better, with a request to “keep in touch”. I don’t want to pester anyone, but am not sure if that means to continue e-mailing news and such? I do want be sure these reps think of me when the time is right.
Thanks in advance.
