Title: Selling editorial photo
Post by: grace on December 23, 2015, 02:24

Hi everyone,I just received an email from a advertising company.
"Your pictures at shutterstock are only for editorial use only.

Is there any other way that I can purchase them for commercial usage?

I am looking for stock pictures to use for a commercial brochure
regarding shophouses in Penang."

May I know whether I can sell editorial photos for commercial use?If can how to charge?

Thanks

Regards,
Grace

Depends on the image. Show us which one they want.
For example:
http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-300925925/stock-photo-penang-malaysia-july-boats-at-the-chew-jetty-which-is-one-of-the-unesco-world-heritage.html?src=XXAqEVG9j6odplpjCdA8MA-1-2 (http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-300925925/stock-photo-penang-malaysia-july-boats-at-the-chew-jetty-which-is-one-of-the-unesco-world-heritage.html?src=XXAqEVG9j6odplpjCdA8MA-1-2)   Here you can remove the names on the boats and you can sell it commercially.

Try to make every image (if possible) available for commercial purchase in advance.
