Q: Are your images digitally retouched?
A: Our photos are as photographed in RAW form, converted with basic adjustments into .tiff files. They are un-retouched images.
Q: Will I own the copyright of the image if I buy the License?
A: No. A License is only an authorization for the use of the image in your projects. It is Non-transferable (only the buyer is authorized to use the license. You can’t have someone else use your license to make their projects). Fantasy Book Design retains all Copyright to all images.
Q: How many times can I use an image I bought?
A: You can use it as many times as you want, as long as it is you, the licensee, who is using it.
Q: Can I use the image I bought for web and social media promos?
A: Yes, but you may not publish the image in its original appearance and size. You must reduce the size to 400 x 600 pixels to prevent piracy.
Q: What happens if I failed to receive the image?
A: Simply contact us via our “Contact” on the website, and we’ll take care of it. The chances of digital transmission failure is extremely low, but if it does happen, you may be assured that you can contact us anytime.
Q: Why is there a faint print/blemish on the images?
A: That is called a ‘Watermark.’ This is embedded in the gallery images to prevent piracy. When you buy the license, you will receive a Watermark-free image in your inbox.
Q: Are your images digitally retouched?
A: On rare occasions, we do edit wrinkles in the backdrop, stray hairs, clothing, and lightly airbrush some blemishes on models’ complexions. Other than that, our photos are as photographed in RAW form, converted into .tiff files.
Q: I want my book covers to have images that are for my exclusive use only and that I can use with different publishers and promotional materials. Do you have any images like that?
A: Yes. You can inquire about buying an Exclusive License ($200) for one of the stock photos in our galleries, or, order an Exclusive Photo Shoot. To order, message us via our contact page and tell us how you want your shoot to be done and what genre you are looking for. Exclusive Photo Shoots start at $250. For more info contact us.
Q: Do you have Model Releases?
A: Yes! Our models have signed contracts.
