Various products such as puzzles and calendars using photos by Michael Abid

Interested in licensing a photo for your own project? To acquire a license, contact me with your license requirements and photos you are interested in (image IDs or links are sufficient). I will check the license availability and send you a non-binding price offer via email.

Prices

License prices are based on the usual market prices in Germany, which are published by the MFM (Federal Association of Professional Image Providers in Germany). Below are prices for some standard licenses, based on following conditions:

No exclusivity
No sublicensing to third parties
License duration 3 years (50 % surcharge for each further 3 years, beyond that by agreement), shorter terms are not offered due to increased administrative effort
Prices apply to low to medium reach usages. Additional custom surcharge applies for increased reach, e.g. usage by a globally known brand
Changes to the photo allowed, e.g. overlaying of own text and graphics
Author credit required (if practically feasible - e.g. not necessary on a small magnet)
