Founded in 2008 by Shannon Routzahn, Words for Images is a premier
keywording service for image professionals. Shannon brings over 8 years of experience within the stock photography industry. During her career she has specialized in various areas such as sales, photo editing |
| and photographer
recruitment, and keywording and metadata. While working for
SuperStock in Jacksonville, Florida, Shannon was Sr. Photo Editor
in the creative department and also worked closely with PowerStock
UK in London. After falling in love with the big city life of
London, Shannon made the move permanently across the pond to
work full time with Construction Photography as Library Manager
in 2006. Now, spending her time between London and Florida,
Shannon offers her freelance services to various agencies such
as EyeCandy Images, Denkou Images and many Alamy
contributing artists. She is
also working closely with
Art
Life Media's wonderful stock photography company, Art Life
Images developing their
soon-to-launch iTravelstock RM collection. Shannon’s creative eye for photography is crucial for quality keywording because conceptual metadata development is key to image saleability. |

"In the competitive world of Stock Photography, I am always looking for an edge over the competition and I have found it with Words for Images. I used to consider myself good at keywording until I decided to try Shannon and see if she could do better. To make a long story short. I tried her keywording services on some of my unsold images and much to my surprise they started selling right away. From now on Words for Images will be doing all my keywording moving forward. That is how convinced I am that it will increase my business." Richard Foreman , photographer |
