Free guide to create quality Photo Reference Packs

In this tutorial I explain step by step some easy techniques to create quality photo reference packs, my workflows to save time and I give you some marketing tips.

Thankfully you will learn that you don’t need to be a professional photographer to make and sell good photos. You just need to know a few basic rules about art and photography which you can learn and apply today.


This guide compiles many lessons and tips I would have loved to know when I started and I have written it for:

  • Photo reference pack creators who want to enhance the quality of their products.

  • People who want to start doing that but don’t know how.

  • And people who want to learn the basics of Photography.


This is just my experience and not a divine rule to be successful in creating and selling photo packs. 

However, I have been on the Artstation marketplace since day one and I am able to make a living doing this activity alone. So I should be able to teach you a thing or two.


Have a good read and I hope it will help you create better content :)
