FAQs

The difference comes down to how you plan to use the image.
- Personal Use ($1.99) is strictly for your own enjoyment or non-profit use. Think of it like buying a song on iTunes—you can listen to it, but you can’t use it in a TV commercial.
- Commercial Use ($49.99) grants you the right to use the image in revenue-generating projects, such as business websites, marketing materials, or product packaging.

You are free to:
- Print the photo as wall art for your home or office.
- Use it as a background on your phone or computer.
- Use it for personal (non-monetized) social media posts.
- Print it as a gift for a friend or family member.
-
You cannot:
- Resell the digital file or share it on free stock photo websites.
- Use the image on a business website, business card, or brochure.
- Upload the image to "Print on Demand" sites (like Redbubble or Society6) to sell on t-shirts, mugs, or posters.
- Use the image in a logo or trademark.

No. You are purchasing a license to use the image, but I (the photographer) retain the copyright ownership. This means you can use the photo for your business, but you cannot claim you took the photo yourself, and you cannot resell the standalone digital file to others as your own stock photography.
