I am a street photographer in New York City. Several months ago, I was approached by a representative of DKNY who asked to purchase 300 of my photos to hang in their store windows “around the world.” They offered me $15,000. A friend in the industry told me that $50 per photo was not nearly enough to receive from a company with hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue. So I asked for more money. They said “no.”Today, a fan sent me a photo from a DKNY store in Bangkok. The window is full of my photos. These photos were used without my knowledge, and without compensation.I don’t want any money. But please REBLOG this post if you think that DKNY should donate $100,000 on my behalf to the YMCA in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. That donation would sure help a lot of deserving kids go to summer camp. I’ll let you guys know if it happens.

The work of Amelia Coffaro

A few weeks ago, 28-year-old photographer Amelia Coffaro and her family were hit with extremely hard hitting news. Amelia was diagnosed with Stage III Breast Cancer. With no health insurance, Coffaro and her family must now must figure out a way to pay for the estimated $150,000 to $200,000 in treatment.

A team has quickly assembled that consist of fellow photographer, Stephen Mallon (who once employed Coffaro as his production coordinator intern), and friends who have created Project Amelia. It’s a donation-based fund that aims to raise $100,000 by May 1st. As of today, $20,000 has already been raised by her fellow peers as well as anonymous donors.

Here’s a selection of this young photographer’s work. You can donate to the cause here and read more about Project Amelia on this Facebook page. She courageously writes, “Good morning breast cancer. I am going to kick your ass.”

please, everyone , reblog this——jack

Original Photographers: Calling All Photography Enthusiasts!

Original-photographers is a personal project created to draw more focus towards the original photography on tumblr.

I aim to promote original photography & to draw more attention to the hard working photographers on tumblr by exhibiting their work.This project is for amateur & professional photography alike & also people who simply have a passion for photography!

I want you to take part in the project, there’s two ways to be featured!

Submit - all work submitted will be vetted and if found appropriate added to a post queue, normally posted within two weeks of submission.

Get reblogged - I will personally be looking for original work to reblog constantly but if you want to get yourself noticed I follow the tag #original photographers
(I also keep a watchful eye over #photographers on tumblr)

All styles and experience levels are welcome!

If you’re interested in the project I’d be grateful if you could spread the word, reblog this post and tell all your creative minded friends!

Among the millions of blogs on Tumblr, only a small number are contributors of original content: “the world’s creators”

And if you’ve ever looked at Tumblr’s Explore Page you might notice that Photography is oddly absent.

There’s #design, #art, #architecture and even #artists on tumblr — but no mention of anything related to the art of taking pictures with a camera. Even #film is a trap — it’s for movies, not analog photography!

We don’t think this situation is acceptable. So let’s Fight it.

We’d like to ask all original photographers on Tumblr to start putting the #photographers on tumblr tag on every single photo you post.
We also track that tag and reblog the best pictures on our blog.

Photographers deserve more recognition among the Creators on Tumblr. Hopefully, by using this tag we’ll help the entire community of Tumblr photographers get noticed — and maybe one day we will see that tag on the Tumblr Explore page too.

Reblog this post and spread the word.

Sincerely,
Lensblr
