It must be quite a bit because you won’t get good stylists etc otherwise! How do you calculate afterwards how much the images need to sell to at least break even? How foes someone like me get decent photos when I am starting out in the micro stock industry? It seems you have to lay out a lot of capital per shoots and you run the risk of getting the images rejected!

Notice that only the girls are using rollerblades. From where you are at in the world your statements might be valid, but not here. We found both rollerbladers and skateboarders to hang out together and not separated as you say. We found very few girls that actually skateboarded, but quit a few that rollerbladed. We also found quit a few people wearing headphones, because they look "cool" and not for the practical reasons. The wholes in the jeans we can't do, because that will send a whole other kind of signal that will damage sales. We did not want to create an image that was authentic to the Skater or Rollerblader, because skaters and rollerbladers are not our customers. We wanted to take a few of the central features from those disciplines to create an image that appeal to our customers, the designers (the buyers). By the way. Don't be a ghost. Come around again and reply. :)
