7 years ago Lise Gagne uploaded her first photograph to iStockphoto. It
was shot with a Canon A40 she'd bought at a pawnshop. She had no
experience in photography outside of using stock in her graphic design
work. What she had was an eye, a willingness to learn, and most
importantly, a knack for anticipating what other graphic designers
needed. She learned quickly, absorbing the rejections when they came
and working hard to master that Canon as well as she could. She also
bravely got in front of the lens herself, along with her photogenic and
fearless partner Louis, and the two of them quickly became two of the
most recognizable and reproduced models in stock. From there, well,
it's history as they say. Lise has been a gracious inspiration here at
iStock, who gives back in all kinds of ways to the site and the
community. She is the model of what we value here: self-taught,
enthusiastic, open, relentless, and brave. Today Lise had her
millionth download at iStockphoto - the first member ever to do so. It's
a stunning achievement – a million individual image licenses in a 7
year time, all from one portfolio at one site. Over the years Lise has
always been the first to every milestone and we've had to invent plenty
of new badges to recognize them. For this particular one, we've given
her a special icon in her favorite colour. Congratulations on your
1,000,000th download Lise, and thank you for everything you do.
