BenjaminWareing Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Over the past year or two, I’ve been selling Live News and news-y sorts of photographs (royalty, politics, that sort of stuff). A lot of my sales detail newspapers and magazines, and as a student photographer, it would be awesome to buy (or at least SEE) copies of the newspapers and magazines that have used my photographs to keep cuttings for keepsake/ my portfolio. But I have no clue where to find them? When I emailed Alamy Contributors team about it a few months ago, they said they couldn’t tell me due to “client confidentiality”, which is slightly annoying given a national newspaper using an image publicly isn’t really...confidential? Does anyone have any clue how to find which papers/ magazines use your images? Here are a few notable images that have sold repeatedly to mags and papers: Royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle: https://www.alamy.com/image-details-popup.asp?Imageid=91BE56E4-AB5C-42BA-9CF2-7B29AF323FF0 Cast of new ITV show on set: https://www.alamy.com/image-details-popup.asp?Imageid=91BE56E4-AB5C-42BA-9CF2-7B29AF323FF0 Environment Secretary Michael Gove speech: https://www.alamy.com/image-details-popup.asp?Imageid=CDC1C660-CC58-4B39-A722-A9ACB0F01E74 Thank you, all!

Sally Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Right click and do a Google search. If they are online that should throw them up. Or keep your eye on the 'Alamy Images found ' thread. Your second link is the same as the first BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanDavidson Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Hi Benjamin the postings are correct. It is not possible to identify all news sale outputs. I sell a fair few news images every month I can only source about a third. I run regular google searches “ian davidson Alamy” -alamy.com (excludes Alamy database). I also find that running a google search on the subject and my name works. For example I covered the disorder in Whitehall yesterday during the Kashmir protest, so I search “Kashmir ian davidson”. You will get lots of false positives but I have picked up a lot of my work using these approaches. The people who who run the “images found in... “. In this forum Do a really excellent job and it is worth checking frequently (as well as being an excellent guide to what is actually selling). However a a lot of published work is not credited My “high” was a Sun front page photo - it was Not credited but Alamy sent me a note. Photos in print will not show up on an online search so it is all a bit hit and miss. It may be possible to use a cuttings agency if it is really important to you but these are expensive and will still miss uncredited. best of luck ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
