This includes any requests for sub-licensing, publication, or commercial use of images, including by builders, architects, designers, stylists, etc. Extra costs will be incurred for approved commercial use of photography.
Real estate photography and video provided to the original listing agent must only be used for marketing of the property, unless otherwise stated in writing. Clients must not provide copies of images to third parties outside of the initial marketing campaign, except for vendors of the property.
Property owners and agents retain no commercial rights to photographs.
