Let’s talk licensing — the easy version. 🤍
Good news first: licensing is already included in every branding package. You’re covered to use your images for what we created them for — and yes, that includes running paid ads that feature you. Promote yourself all day.
Two things worth knowing:
1) The license belongs to whoever signed the agreement — not everyone who appears in the photo. If a company or brand booked the shoot and your name isn’t on the signature line, check with me before using the images for your own separate projects.
2) The scope is tied to the project we made them for. If the images move to something new, that’s a new purpose — reach out and we’ll license them for it. (It’s a separate license, so there’s a fee, but I keep it fair and simple.)
Using the work outside its agreed purpose is technically copyright infringement, but honestly, it’s almost always an innocent mix-up and it’s easy to sort. So if you’re ever unsure, just ask — message me and we’ll get the right license set up.
Protecting the work protects you too. 🤝
