It's tough some days but when we do a model shoot we try to break it down into a few components so I can submit 15-20 from one part, do something different the next few days then submit the other part later on and still have shots for that day. Agree witht he planning bits - it helps a lot to know what you're shooting and you dont have to spontaneously create 15 new images from thin air.

Im more graphic than photographer now, so i made a decision (few months ago), that will submit at least 10 illustrations / week and i did it! Since this time my sales went up quite quick. Nowdays im normally putting there nearly 20 a week. For normal people, who are normally working and have family (child) is quite hard to submit (or do) something every day. The weekly basis is much much better :) - of course, the last day of the week is sometimes quite hectic :))) Hi there, nice article about the challenge and the result.

I am now doing this as well since a week. But my goal is a little lower. I just try to submit as many images as iStock will allow me to submit. All the best meeting your goal and thanks for your continues blogging. Jan Hi Lee,

I hope we'll see more challenges and results from you as well in the future.

But it is good to know that the method seems to work. I know that with only 11 photos in my portfolio I will never retire with it :) I am lazy and I was not able this week to make any single shot :) Anyway, A lot of non-photographer work these days so I think I will not be able to start the challenge until mid-May.
