Shutterstock Celebrates 100 Million Images Milestone and Releases Top Ten Trends Report

NEW YORK, Sept. 13, 2016

Earlier this year, the company introduced its computer vision technology, which powers smart search tools to help Shutterstock's 1.5 million customers find the exact image they need faster.

"Our customers demand fresh, relevant and current imagery everyday, and are licensing 5 images every second," said Jon Oringer, Shutterstock Founder and CEO. "From the original 30,000 photos at the launch of Shutterstock to now having 100 million images is a testament to our valuable community of contributors who add more than 100,000 images every day. As we celebrate this momentous occasion, we look to the future and the trends that are changing the way we see the world."

To commemorate this milestone, Shutterstock produced a new infographic illustrating "The Top Ten Trends Shaping the Future of Imagery." As a tenant of the iconic Empire State Building, the celebration will also extend to the tower lights, which will light up in Shutterstock brand colors of red and white at sunset tonight.

Explore the Top Trends Shaping the Future of Imagery infographic, as predicted by Shutterstock's curators, designers and image reviewers.
