License Requests

Check Previous Request

To look up the status of a request you made previously, enter your request ID here.

To request a license for use of a commercial or editorial use of a photo, simply browse the galleries. When you have found an image you're interested in:

  1. Click the License Photo link in the Product Options menu to right of the photo.
  2. Specify the way in which you intend to use the photo by filling in the license request form as completely as possible. If you would like to use the photo in multiple ways (e.g., in print and on the Web), submit the form separately for each use.
  3. Be sure to include your contact information so that we may contact you promptly regarding your request.

If you want to license a photo, but cannot find it online in our Photo Store, you may place a research request by going to our Special Request page. Be sure to indicate "license" in the Purpose portion of the form.

If you want to buy a print of a photograph for your personal use, go to the detailed view of the photograph and select one of the print product options.
