Coming Soon Additional Photographers

TS TEAM — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 02:48:35 +0000

We are working hard to get all aspects of our site up and running as quick as possible. In the next few weeks, we will be adding our partner photographers to our growing stock image library. The process will take some time to fit the new strict guidelines we have created for our stock site, but we know the wait will be worth it. Our partners have some amazing work and will expand our image collection giving you more choices.

We are very pleased with the new site and hope that not only will we provide a good vehicle for our partners to sell images, but also provide good exposure to help them grow their names within the advertising and commercial markets.

New Site for Ryan Cardone Photography

TS TEAM — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:41:10 +0000

If you have not looked at Ryan’s portfolio site recently, we have made some changes! Please take a look and let us know what you think as we are very excited about the new site! It is simple, bold, and lets the photography speak for itself.

For those that do not know, Ryan is co-founder and chief photographer/editor of Tidalstock. Before he turned professional photographer, he competed professionally as a pro-longboarder. His passion for the water has led him to become an outstanding surf photographer. With some help from others, he began Tidalstock, a place for media buyers to find unique, bold, and fresh water stock photography.

We have some new changes coming very soon as part of our whole portfolio makeover. Stay Tuned!

Thanks to Mike Artman at Namtra Media for designing the new portfolio site.

The dogs that come to the beach with us!

TS TEAM — Thu, 08 May 2008 17:46:06 +0000

Through our stock photography collections you will see various dogs. Most of these dogs are our pets or pets of our friends. Often they help us at the beach while we are surfing or shooting. Some hang out in the pool or others skateboard along with us. It is always fun snapping a few of them wherever we are. Here are a few more or our best friends.

A Day Snowboarding, June Mountain CA

TS TEAM — Tue, 06 May 2008 14:50:09 +0000

This was a day we went to June Mountain to go snowboarding earlier this winter. The conditions were great. A big change from last year. We are known for our water and ocean images but Tidalstock also has a collection of winter stock photography images available.

If you need your own shot, our chief photographer is available for commission to accompany your exotic trip or to shoot your snowboarding campaign in the Alaskan back country. We can handle most conditions. Send us a note if you want more information.
