Sport photography Q&A: Why can’t I view the images online?
A question I often get asked is ‘Why can’t I view the images online?’
This has proved unworkable in the past. One club was covered throughout a complete season, with every game bar one covered during that season, and circa 70,000 images put online (with watermarks) in online galleries.
Whilst a few images were purchased, the majority of players chose to screen grab/right-click – basically stealing images and breaching copyright. Indeed the majority of the players at the club never having purchased a single rugby image of them playing over a 6 year period.
This was, and is, just not sustainable, not least due to the huge amount of data and storage requirements and costs generated from covering all these games. Let alone the time and work required, both on the day of the fixture and then post-processing of the huge amount of images.
Introducing the Sport Image Subscription Plans
So a new way of working was required, hence the new sport image subscription plans.
No one is under any obligation to sign-up, but if you want superb quality, professional sport images from one of probably one of the best sport photographers on the Isle of Wight then these sport image subscription plans are for you.
An investment in me by purchasing images is a pledge to show you value me, my approach to well-produced high-quality sport images, as well as gaining my coverage of your Isle of Wight sport.
