What is Stock Photography?

Stock photos are images that have already been created and are available for sale to commercial and editorial buyers. They differ from Assignment Photos which are images that will be created by contract at a specific time or location. The Deseert Photo Project is available for all your assignment needs.

If I Purchase a Stock Photo Will I Own it Outright?

A quality stock photograph has a long useful life as it can be sold many times. Therefore, since stock photos represent the future of a photographer's business, those images will not be sold outright. When you purchase a photo from a stock archive, you are actually purchasing a "license" which grants you the right to use the photo for a certain project and/or period of time.
