1. Is there a minimum order?
Absolutely not. I want you to have all the images you need, but nothing more.
2. I need digitals for my website and promotional materials, but I've heard there can be copyright issues. How does the copyright release work?
The way copyright works, I have the copyright because I created the images, but I will send a release to you that you may print, which gives you the right to use the photographs for your own promotional purposes (marketing, advertising, public relations, etc.).
3. Will there be a watermark on my prints and/or digitals?
There will not be a watermark on any final product you receive. The images are about your brand, after all!
4. One of my vendors would like to use the images for their business, as well. Is that ok?
Absolutely! Have them give me a call or send an email and I will send the images to them. Please do not send the images to another vendor-- I am happy to do so.
5. Am I required to give photo credit whenever I use the images?
No. As a business owner myself, I know how difficult it can be to cram everything you need into a small space on a business card or ad, so I do not require photo credit. That said, I truly appreciate it when you can do so, and perhaps most especially if you have a credit area of your website that can link back to the studio.
6. What size will the digitals be? My web designer said I need a specific size!
I try to balance the size of a high quality photograph with the amount of memory it takes on your computer (the larger the file size, the more complicated it can be to use), and generally send images that are 2-5MB each. If you have specific dimensions you want the images to be, please let me know, but note that web images are often small and you may need larger sizes for other applications. Note that if you plan to do print advertising in magazines, you will need very large files.
7. What happens if I lose the digitals?
I always try to keep back-up files of the images, but I cannot guarantee I will have them indefinitely. For that reason, I encourage you to make a duplicate copy of the images as soon as you download them, and to save them in Dropbox or a similar cloud system for safe keeping.
