As many of you know, we recently launched stocklandmartelarchives.com, a boutique stock site that offers a carefully curated selection of images plus the personal, one-on-one service that has been the cornerstone of Stockland Martel since we started the agency. Our approach with this new project is quality rather than quantity. Our photographers have a unique point of view, and drawing from their collection of personal work—much of which has never been published—we chose photos that exemplify their signature styles. Don’t see what you’re looking for at stocklandmartelarchives.com? Just give us a call. We look forward to working with you.
