PHOTO PRINT SALE VS LICENSING
In providing a photograph (digital file of) we are the Licensor and you are the Licensee.

WHAT IS IMAGE LICENSING?
"The licensing of an image (photograph) occurs when the creator/owner sells the intangible right to use the image to a customer for further commercial use, while retaining ownership of the image. Thus, the income arises not from the sale of a tangible print, but from Licensing the Use of the intangible property. Typical rights granted to customers include the right to publicly display, exhibit, publish, reproduce or to create another product". re: WA Dept Of Revenue 2020

LEGAL DOCUMENTATION
It is important that we retain documentation establishing the nature of the transaction to comply with Washington State Dept. of Revenue's Rules and Regulations. "The invoice, contract or other instrument of sale must clearly state the specific intangible rights that are being granted to the user of the photo. The fact that the invoice may have a line item for “licensing” or “rights of usage” fees is not, in and of itself, determination if the exact rights are not also described." re: WA Dept Of Revenue 2020
