Rejected

Attempt #1 at stock photography: FAIL

I signed up for a stock photo site… You had to submit 10 photos for review and all 10 were rejected. After looking at the photos on the site I’m not surprised. However, I have no idea how to take photos like that. In the words of Natasha Bedingfield “I need some help; some inspiration.” If anyone has any suggestions or resources for taking good stock photos I would be much appreciated.

On another note, I decided I want to sign up for classes at the local community college to help gain some experinece and confidence. I just need to call now and see if I can get into their portraiture 101 class without taking intro to film photography. I can understand the usefulness of this course, but for the sake of time I would like to be able to take what I really need instead.
