PhotoShelter Aims for Position "Between Flickr and Getty"

PhotoShelter, the two-year-old photo archiving and e-commerce company, has introduced a tool that allows Flickr users to easily import their images into a PhotoShelter account, which prevents unauthorized viewing, downloads, and image theft. Approximately 20,000 photographers worldwide subscribe to PhotoShelter’s Personal Archive system, which the company describes as a “business-in-a-box solution” for archiving, distribution, and sales.

The company also runs the PhotoShelter Collection, a marketplace plaform for commercial buyers. “The intent of that was really to sit between Flickr and Getty [Images],” PhotoShelter CEO Allen Murabayashi told us recently.
