When do I need a model or property release?

For Editorial uses you don’t normally need a model or property release. For commercial use, if the person in your image can recognise themselves in any way, you’ll need a model release to sell for commercially. This includes crowd scenes, parts of the body or silhouettes.

If there’s recognisable property in your image you’ll need a property release in order to sell for commercial use. Property is not just limited to buildings, it’s anything identifiable that’s copyrighted/trademarked e.g. logos and branded items. This release must be signed by the property or brand owner.

If I sell my images on Alamy, can I sell them in other places too? Is 64ÌåÓýexclusive?

We’re non-exclusive so that means there are no restrictions and you can submit to other stock photo sites. If you do choose to submit to another agency, just make sure they’re non-exclusive too.
