RE: Switzerland - Travel & Art

@Arlindo Thanks for visiting! I really need to update my website tho. About the licensing part: Basically anyone who would use my photographs will need a license or approval. I have had my photographs stolen and being used without permission so many times, I ended up not sharing my photographs anymore. And there are -always- people who do not understand how much time and effort it takes to 'just push a button', so they end up on Google and download the image not realizing they are stealing.

The Image Licensing is mostly introduced to clients who have hired me. They buy a license for a specific image, this could be one existing image, or an image that has yet to be taken. All my images come with a standard 1 year use to lower initial costs for any client (mostly they would like the option to use them for a longer period). The partnership is offering an all-in-one license to cover and extend all licenses that have been purchased before and come with a 15% discount on all photography services. This way it gives me a good overview about the type of client who hires me. One day clients versus long-term relationships.

Thanks for the explanation! I'm smaller fish than you, I don't have that type of clients. Maybe in the future :)

You're more than welcome João! Anytime. Feel free to ask whenever you have a question.
