If you find an image online that you would like to use in your project, you need to reach out to the photographer before you use the image to ask for their permission. What else do you need to do? In this video, author Richard Harrington discusses the importance of reaching out to a photographer for permission to use their images.
- If you don't find the type of image that you need…in a stock photo site,…or you stumble across a photograph or image…that you really like online that you want to use,…contacting the artist or the photographer is a good idea.…Here are some pieces of advice that you'll want to follow.…First up, make sure you engage the other party…before you use the image.…Don't do this afterwards,…as it doesn't alleviate the legal problem.…Reaching out after you've given the presentation…or after you've printed 20,000 copies of a book…will get you into trouble.…
Make sure you have a clear expectation…on how the image will be used…and communicate that to the other party.…For example, I've been contacted by people…wanting to use images for noncommercial use…or for a non-profit.…And in some cases, I've allowed them to do so.…Other times, I've had people reach out,…and they wanted to use a particular piece…of content I've created,…and they were only going to use it for a very small project.…As such, I reduced my fee, so it was reasonable…
