...and Britstock Photo is live!
What is Britstock Photo all about?
Like many graphic designers, we found various royalty-free stock photography web sites have been invaluable over the years. However, there have been times when we simply couldn't find the precise image we wanted, and it was usually because it obviously was not British in some way. Perhaps a lorry wasn't a type you'd see on our roads, or we wanted a road sign or litter bin that didn't quite look right.
In such cases we often went out and took our own photos to fit the theme. It struck us, asking around, that other people were hitting the same problem. The solution seemed obvious: start our own image library to cover the gaps left by the others.
Our remit is simple. Britstock Photo is a library of quality royalty-free photographs that will try to cover all aspects of life in the British Isles. There are landscapes, landmarks, towns and cities. You'll find transport of all kinds. We have road signs, road markings, as well as humdrum things like wheelie bins, manhole covers and dinner services. Additionally, if you can't actually find what you want, then you're welcome to let us know and we'll do our best to provide it!
We have a growing band of photographers covering the UK. Britstock Photo's library is growing each week, and we hope to become the first place anyone looking for images covering life in Britain will come. Our prices are competitive, and our quality is high.
