I've been asked to sell some shots :)

dod · 13-06-2005, 22:54

Some folk are easily pleased.

namely this sort of thing, but I've got two questions.
First is how much would be reasonable for an A4 print?
Second is the club want to use a number of them on their website. I'm not charging as it's not a rich club and more importantly my wife wouldn't let me :wink: However am I entitled to ask them to state copyright etc even though they get them for nothing?

IanC_UK · 13-06-2005, 22:59

Definitely state copyright ! with a web or email address !

That way you can potentially make some money from it without charging the club !

TerraS · 13-06-2005, 23:07

I charge £10 per A4 shot on Photobox.co.uk. (Not that I have sold any yet!)

Matty · 13-06-2005, 23:09

well done Dod, i got paid £10 for the shot i had in DP mag, and ive done a lot of free for my work, but then im a sucker, lol, and ive done a few for a couple of others too....again for free.......hmmmmmmmm

Thanks, I was thinking about a tenner as well so it looks like I wasn't too far off. Not a bad day out actually, photography and jodhpurs

Good news dod

Make sure they list you as the photographer on the site or if there are more photos on that site taken by other people, ensure you have your name on each of your pictures.

Whilst just starting out and with the people buying at club level, £10 per A4 print (if you are happy with that) is probably ok but don’t under sell yourself and never give away copy write to your images for anywhere near that price. You are selling a print not an image/photo

I ahve a couple of freinds who are into the horse show, dressage scene.
They pay £12.50 on a regular basis for A4 prints from the shows they frequent.

For website use, I would include your copyright on the image before releasing.

can someone do me a favour and check the photo on the right hand side of this link just in case I've got some weird cache thing going on

http://www.freewebs.com/serc/teamphotos.htm

It's one of the ones in this thread which is totally ironic. I haven't given permission for this photo but it is the same site I was going to be giving a few. Checked all the wifes emails just in case, she says she hasn't anyway.

It does look like that pic mate, but whoever did the site has no idea how to do website editing ! lol pic is all messed up !

***Steve*** · 14-06-2005, 20:27

I would say that it is the same picture unless somebody else was standing right next to you with a camera happened to take that shot at exactly the same time and happened to have contact with that site as well. :wink:

dod · 14-06-2005, 20:32

thanks.

My first reaction was the wife had mailed it but she's adamant she didn't, in fact she gave me a hard time for not telling her I'd sent it.

Edit: I've mailed the webmaster to find out where she got it.

Edir 2: hmph, they've taken it down without replying.
