Gallery Stock

Gallery Stock was founded by Bill Charles and, as of January 2009, had been operating for about five years. It positioned itself as an additional revenue stream for commercial and fine art photographers who had not previously licensed stock, publicizing their work in the right way and for a respectable fee, with fees likely to be higher than at other libraries. By early 2009, the library held more than 50,000 images by about 400 photographers, including Nadav Kander, Stephen Shore, and Larry Fink, and was adding about 3,000 images a month; its editorial clients included high-end publications such as Le Monde, and its advertising clients included the major agencies in Europe and the United States. Its brochure had won a PDN Nikon award.⁠[1][1][1][1][1][1][1][1][1][1][1][1]

At the time, the company’s European office in Shoreditch, London, had been open for just over a year, with Stewart Mungeam as general manager, and offices were planned for Germany and Singapore.⁠[1][1]
