On Scene
is a commercial Stock Photography Agency and Image Library,
where we sell "license rights" to use our images.
The costs associated with maintaining such a large database
are huge. Scanning, editing, database management, website
maintenance, development and server space are just a few
of the expenses. Not to mention the costs involved with
capturing the images themselves.
Due
to the above, and our agreement with our Photographers,
we require a fee for ALL image use. While we do recognize
and support the efforts of non-profit organizations to educate
both the public and industry; we must cover our basic expenses
so that providing your organization with images doesn't
become a liability to us. Our Photographers also feel that
since the printers, shippers and all the individuals involved
are usually being paid, it's not proper that they are continually
being asked to donate their work.
Therefore,
if your organization has genuine non-profit status and can
provide us with a budget for the current project, we will
do everything we can to provide you with a rate that you
can justify.
