STOCK IMAGES

William B. Folsom Photography, Inc. has 50,000+ original 35mm slides on file and a growing number of digital images (both fine and raw files).  We deal primarily with book publishers, magazine editors, and photo researchers. If requested, we will post images on our lightbox or as an attachment to an email message.  We will also ship original images for review upon request.


RESPONDING TO YOUR SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS

We've been in stock photography for about 30 years, so we are able to respond
quickly if you feel we can accurately meet your photo requirements.
 

We will normally send you a low-res scan as an e-mail attachment or place a sample in our lightbox for your review. There is no fee for that service.

Once you have identified an image, we will send you the original slides,
or a CD scanned to your requirements (jpgs or raw files).

We invite you to check out our credits, our fees,
