Who Owns Copyright?

Copyright regarding photography is really quite simple. The photographer who pushed the button 📸owns the copyright, for their life and 25 years afterwards! Purchasing an image license does not signify a transfer of title, intellectual property or copyright ownership: all images remain, at all times the property and © of Michelle Terlato Photography.

Private Use ONLY

High Resolution Digital Images purchased here on my website are for the sole purpose of personal/private use only. PERSONAL USE (i.e. non-commercial activity)

They are NOT 🛑 to be used for commercial/advertising /sponsorship purposes.

Commercial Use

If you wish to use an image for advertising or commercial purposes, depending on the requirement will determine the value. If you think the image will help promote your brand, your image, your business or your product then contact me for a rate.

Please do not give the image away to your friends, your instructors, your sponsor or use on your business website without contacting me for a commercial rate as then it is an ‘advertising image’.

If images are used without purchase and/or permission they are considered stolen property. Legal action will be taken accordingly. Let’s hope it will never come to this. 🤦‍♀️
