| Q: Can I purchase your images for use with brochures/business cards/websites/etc.? |
| A: Absolutely, all of the images are available for purchase on a managed rights basis. |
|
| Q: Can I purchase your images as a print? |
| A: Yes, all images are available in 4x6, 5x7, 8x10, 11x14, 16x20 and 20x30 prints. Remember, some images will be cropped at various sizes. The images can also be ordered on puzzles, mousepads, calendars, and mugs. |
|
| Q: Can I use your image on my blog/personal website? |
| A: Blogs are generally disallowed from utilizing the photograph. On an occasional special basis I sometimes allow a low-resolution version to be posted with appropriate credit. Please contact me to see if you qualify. |
|
| Q: Why would I want to purchase an image from you instead of using someone else for free? |
| A: As a professional photographer I only use the best equipment and tools for creating and processing the photographs. I am constantly striving to provide the highest quality image at a reasonable cost.
I have been been photographing for years and understand the business and I will be around in the following years to continue to provide high quality services and images for your business and personal needs. Some of the other providers cannot guarentee that will be able to provide the consistent quality necessary for professional services. Additionally, I have costs associated with running a photography business that include website costs, equipment costs, and processing costs. |
|
| Q: What is your pricing model? |
| A: We specialize in rights-managed licensing to guarentee a limited use for each image. A record is mainted of each image in our photo library and I can inform you whether the image of interest has been previously licensed before and for how many times. No image will appear in a royalty-free collection. In general, I charge a one-time use fee that is dependant on the actual usage, but different licensing models may be available to further fit the needs of the project. Our pricing model is fair and competitive and I utilize several models for comparison:
Multiple image uses may qualify for a discount. If a budget is an issue please inform me and I will try to be flexible to accommodate the constraints. No transaction will be conducted below the minimal licensing fee of $150. I will not grant free commercial licenses solely in exchange for credits or links. |
|
| Q: What information is needed to provide a quote? |
| A: Please provide as much detail as possible. If the use requested is too general my quote will reflect that and this may result in a higher quote. At the minimum please provide me with:
- Name and/or Organization
- Contact information (Phone and Email)
- End Use
- Usage Type, Size and Placement
- Circulation, Distribution, and Duration
- Requested rights
