What's A Model Release
A model release means that the people on the picture have given permission for it to be used commercially. For an image to be used it’s not just the maker of the photography but also the people that are on it that need to have given permission.
At 123RF we make sure our images have releases and that we have them on file. If we don’t have it we will refuse the image or clearly mark it for editorial use only on our website.
Property Release
Properties have owners, whether it’s a house, a design, a landmark, or a large structure. Those owners might have copyright over the use of images of those properties.
Our team knows this and checks for property releases. Form many buildings it’s fine, for others it isn’t. It can also depend on how many buildings are in a picture and is one property the main focus.
When in doubt, we are here to help
Third Party Rights
We make sure that our artists and clients are aware of rules around showing company logo’s, trademarks and celebrities. We know the rules and our editing team makes sure we do not upload images for commercial use that have third party rights on them
