Commercial Web Use of Photographs

If you wish to use one of my images on a commercial web site, please do the following:

1. Contact me in advance to arrange permission, using my contact page
2. Ensure that all photographs are correctly credited as outlined above

Please note that most of the pictures of people on my pages are not model-released. Advertising usage of photos (e.g., brochures, catalogs, print ads) is very different from editorial usage of photos (e.g., newspaper and magazine articles, books). You cannot use pictures in advertising (e.g., an on-line product brochure or anything else that is selling) without getting a model release from any person whose image is recognizable in the photo. You might also have problems if an image contains a recognizable physical property, e.g., Disneyland.
