Obtaining the right to use photos License

If you are publishing books or papers or if you are working in the advertising industry, or if you think the photos shown on this site might be useful for you for any purpose, you can obtain the right to reproduce them in your publications. There are many types of licenses (Rights managed, Royalty free, exclusively or not) and the cost of publication may differ depending on many parameters.

To determine the real cost of the license, the author needs to know:
  • Where and how will the photos be published?
  • In which size they will be reproduced?
  • What will the quantity of the publication be?
  • Do you need the right to reproduce the photos exclusively or not exclusively?
When you ask for a quote in the shopping cart, please answer the questions above filling the field “Add a note for this item” to allow the author to determine the right license and the exact cost of publication.
