Image Licensing

All images requested and purchased through Georgesimpkinsphotography.com are offered on an individual license basis. The copyright of the image is always retained by the photographer. The licenses serve to protect the rights of the photographer, the licensee and even the subject matter of the images. When an image is licensed, there will be standard terms and conditions outlined with your specific usage rights. This will be sent to you by physical mail or email (your choice) once the license has been agreed upon.  

Usage Rights

When an image is licensed by the photographer, the usage is specified on the website order and/or on the subsequent invoice and cannot be used for any other purpose without further agreement by me. The license will state the media use, language rights and the territories for the usage.  

Usage Fee

A fee is generally payable to license any rights managed image. The fee is based on how the image is going to be used. This will be calculated by such factors as the print run, media, the reproduction size, and territory distribution and whether the requested use is exclusive or non-exclusive. Incorrect information may lead to a cancellation of the license.
