Has anyone ever asked a pro photographer to...

...sell them a digital image?

If so what did they say and if they said yes how much did they charge?

think £15 for pics from hunt ball, one picture printed and images emailed to us. Think that was cheap.

 

[LauraBR]

OMG that is cheap!

Was thinking of horse pics from comps... my family live miles and miles away so we share lots of photos online but legally I can't use copywrighted pics... thinking of asking photographer for digital copy to purchase.

A few of the pro's near me offer pics on a CD or by email... no harm in asking!

We sell digital images for £30 (this is wedding pics)

 

[LauraBR]

That's actually the kind of proce I would expect and would be willing to pay- because I guess as a photographer you are selling the rights, or at least sharing them?

How does it work? Could I buy one of your photos and share it via photobucket etc?

 

[Happy Horse]

If someone buys a digital image from us, they can use it in any way they like so long as it is not for commercial gain (the photographer will always retain the copyright to the image) so if you wanted to upload it to photobox that would be fine although I am not sure of the maximum image size you can upload. our digital files are huge so you may need to reduce the size before uploading it.

 

[LauraBR]

I would just want to be able to email it, photobucket it and I guess print as many as I liked.

Will have to ask...

 

[Happy Horse]

There wouldn't be any problem with any of that from our point of view.

One of the photographers round here will sell you all you photos from the show (3 days) on CD for £50

Yes I bought one from harry MacMillian of my ex-horse to use in his advert and he charged me £10. Worth every penny!

Yeah, they usually do it. Its better getting the original pic file because then you can print off as many copies as you like....!!

Yeah, my hubby bought a load that a photographer took of me at a show. I think she charged him 15quid per image.
