No. Screenshotting images is legally considered theft. In doing so you are agreeing to be charged via invoice. 

Images are edited upon purchase. 

Usually, I only upload unedited proofs. Occasionally I will upload lightly edited versions. Edits upon purchase include cropping, straightening, adjusting lighting and clarity.

Please note that my image style is more “dark and moody” than “bright and airy”. This is a signature of my work and can not be altered. 

Yes. This can be anywhere from a further $5-$50, depending on the intensity of the manipulation. Some drastic edits may not be feasible. Please contact me for an exact quote. 

No. This is because it misrepresents my work to potential clients and may degrade the quality of the photograph. Please contact me for permission before manipulating the work in any way, such as a graphic designer creating breeding/sales advert. 

The week after your competition: 1-3 days 
8+ days after your competition: 3-10 days 

This is because I clear out my schedule to process these images in the week immediately after your competition. If you order your images later, I am often working on other events or photoshoots, so I can’t guarantee I’ll process them as quickly. 

_{Note – if you selected additional edits, e.g. object or person removal, these may take longer.} 

Sponsors can share your images, but not download or re-post. 
If sponsors wish to re-post images themselves, use them as part of their ongoing promotion or website, they can purchase a commercial license through me. 

Images can be purchased in social media size, which is insufficient for printing (2048px on the longside, 72dpi) or high resolution (up to 6700px on the longside – note this varies based on crop) at 300dpi.

Proof galleries include a large watermark to prevent theft.

Social media sized images include a small signature, in the form of my logo.

High resolution files include no signature.  

Under Tennessee Law, copyright remains with the photographer who took the picture for their lifetime and a further 70 years. 

When you buy a photo, you are buying a copy of the image with a particular set of rights, known as licencing. 

Images available via my galleries are available for an indefinite personal use licence. This excludes you from using the image to make a profit. For example, under a personal use licence, you could put your photograph on a mug for your own use or to gift a friend – but you could not produce a range of mugs with the photograph to sell on to the public. If you wanted to do that, you would need permission and to purchase a commercial use licence. Think of it as you would a book – you only buy a copy. You would not then own the story and be able to produce copies of the same story to sell on. 

With a personal use licence, it also means that if someone approached you to use a photo of yourself for their business (e.g. a sponsor), because you do not own the copyright, you don’t have the rights to give them that permission. The business would need to contact the photographer. 

The line between personal use and commercial use can become difficult when you own a business, such as training and selling horses, or even a non-equine business where you wish to use an image in your promotional material. When in doubt, it is best to contact your photographer to confirm the permitted uses of your image.
