Never before has there been a company like PhotoShelter and never will there be a company like PhotoShelter. They are the backbone of my business from galleries, to print sales, to client photo delivery, to stock sales, etc, etc. I recommend them to everyone I know. The beauty of PhotoShelter, is they are not just for print sales, or just for stock sales, or just for online archiving. They are for everything.
