Licensing Images

Most of the images on this site are available for commercial and editorial licensing through alamy.com for commercial and editorial uses including advertising, books, magazines, brochures, newspapers, newsletters, flyers, photocopied handouts, and any website or e-mail distribution. Restrictions may apply for images which contain third party copyrighted material or sensitive subjects. Photos of artwork are for editorial use only.

For immediate online licensing of an image you can click on the alamy.com icon under that image or alternatively click the "License this image" link. This will take you to a page with a form that you can fill out to request a quote.

If you wish to license an image that doesn't have the alamy.com icon or link, you can send me an email with the following information:

Once I receive this information, I will respond with a quote for the specified usage.

I provide images electronically as high resolution digital files and these can be made available within a few hours of ordering. The images can be delivered by email or placed on my website for exclusive download.

Licensing fees can be paid by wire transfer to Australian bank account or credit card (via Paypal).

Images on this site may have one of two license types: Rights-Managed License (RM) or Royalty-Free License (RF). As a general rule almost all landscape, cityscape or travel images have RM license. Exact type for each image can be found on alamy.com. Please click on the alamy.com icon under an image or alternatively click the "License this image" link.

For information on my royalty-free images please see my stock page.

Rights-Managed licensing, or "RM", is priced for a specific use based on factors such as length of use; type of use; number of insertions; size; number of impressions or displays; geographic region; etc. This type of licensing allows stricter control over an image's use. For some photos lacking a model or property release rights-managed licensing is needed to make sure it is not used for advertising because the image lacks a model release or property release.

Royalty-Free licensing, also known as "RF", is a very broad-use license that does not require additional payments for additional uses. The amount of time an image may be used is generally unlimited. There are almost always restrictions to use; these vary but the most common limitation is on re-licensing the image. Price is almost always based on the pixel-size of the image.

You can save preview images from this site as comping files. These files can be used free of charge if they are used only for personal, non-commercial use and solely for test or sample purposes. Comping files may be used to take a closer look at a particular image or to create materials for proofing presentations to clients. Comping files are not licensed for use in final projects, whether for internal or external use. Copyright watermark information on comping files must be untouched.
