Stock Photography Image Library


What is Stock Photography?


Stock photography is a term applied to existing photographs that can be licensed for specific uses, on a Rights Managed or Royalty Free basis. A customer who uses stock photography instead of hiring a photographer can save time and money.

Rights Managed or Royalty Free?


With Rights Managed stock photography an individual licensing agreement is negotiated for each use. The client may, however, request "exclusive" rights, preventing other customers from using the same image for a specified length of time or in the same industry. Royalty-free stock photography offers the photo buyer the ability to use an image in an unlimited number of ways for a single license fee. However, with royalty free licensing there is no option for getting exclusive usage rights.
