FAQ’S

Q: What rights are included with the licensing fee?

A: The licensing fee grants specific usage rights as outlined in the contract. This will include rights for digital use, marketing materials, social media, and website display. A separate license is required for third-party usage, an additional fee will be invoiced.

Q: Can we use the photos for commercial purposes?

A: Yes, but the extent of commercial use allowed in the “Base Package” covers use for marketing and promotional materials. For broader commercial use, like Advertising, Magazines and Publications, or selling the images through Clickable Web Advertisements, Merchandise or Product Packaging, will require a separate agreement and an additional fee.

Q: Can we alter or edit the images?

A: No. Typically, photographers prefer that their images are not altered to maintain the integrity of their work. Major alterations will require permission from the photographer.

Q: What are the limitations on third-party use? Can we cost share with vendors?

A: Licensing agreements usually restrict third-party use unless explicitly stated otherwise. This means clients can’t resell, redistribute, or sublicense the images to third parties, such as manufacturers, vendors, or other businesses, without prior consent. A separate license is required for third-party usage, an additional fee will be invoiced. Cost Sharing opportunities are also available upon request, additional licensing parties may be added to your invoice at a markup per vendor. The Client must inform the Photographer of any such requests.

Q: What is the Instagram “hashtag” scam?

A: Clients should be aware of the "hashtag scam," where companies request photo usage via Instagram comments, asking for a specific hashtag (e.g., #YesCrate) to indicate consent. Responding with the hashtag may grant the company extensive rights to use the photo without compensation or acknowledgment to the photographer, resulting in copyright infringement. Proper handling of such inquiries is crucial: do not respond to these requests without consulting the photographer to ensure the brands agreement respects the photographer's copyright and compensates for the image's use. We provide information on photo rights and best practices to protect both the photographer's and client's interests.
