What is an Digital Image License?

A digital image license is an agreement that lets a person use a photograph, and sometimes other digital images, with certain conditions. It usually includes the information below:

  • Who is allowed to use the image
  • How it can be used
  • Whether the image can be altered or not
  • Whether the rights to use the image are exclusive
  • How long the person is allowed to use the image for

 This document can include any other limitations set by the image owner or creator.

Photographers, graphic designers, and other content creators often use these documents. The purpose is to make sure that their clients understand and agree to how the photos can be used.

For example, most wedding photographers state that a photo cannot be altered and then reposted online. One of the goals is to make sure the photographer has control over the quality of the photograph that is put out into the world, since their name is attached to it. We provide a digital image license template that you can customize with all relevant details. Simply fill in the required information, save the document, and use it as needed.
