Licensing

Licensing means buying the right to use a photograph — not the photograph itself. I remain the author and copyright holder, and you receive a clearly defined permission: what you may use the image for, for how long, where, and whether anyone else may use it too.

Personal

$39

A print for your own wall, a personal project, a gift.

One person, non-commercial use only. Print up to A2. Unlimited duration, worldwide, non-exclusive. May not be resold, redistributed or used to promote anything.

Web & social

$129

Websites, blogs, social media, newsletters and presentations.

One company or organisation. Unlimited duration, worldwide, non-exclusive. Digital use only — no print, no advertising.

Editorial

$189

Press, magazines, books and articles.

Unlimited duration, worldwide, non-exclusive. Editorial context only — the image may not be used to promote a product or service. Delivered as JPEG and 16-bit TIFF.

Commercial extended

$490

Advertising, marketing, packaging, corporate presentations.

Exclusive

On request

The image is withdrawn from sale and licensed to you alone.

On request. Negotiated per project — duration, territory and scope are agreed case by case. From $2,500.

How it works

Tell me which photograph you would like to use and what you intend to do with it. I will confirm the licence that applies and the fee, then send you the high-resolution file together with a written licence.

Every licence is granted under the same license terms. If your intended use does not fit any of the options above, describe it — most requests can be accommodated.
