So you've bought the rights to your photographs, now what?

These days most photographers, including us, either package up or offer separately the rights to your photographs. Since we've been selling a lot of the rights to our photos lately, we thought we'd blog about what we feel is the best way to go about printing and preserving your memories. Most photographers provide you your full resolution jpeg photographs on a storage device with a written copyright release. So, then what? Ott Photography has some recommendations for you. First, once you purchase the storage device, it's yours. Make sure to take great care of your newly purchased photographs. Put them in more than one place. It's great to download them on your computer or computers, but don't stop there! Secure your storage device for safe keeping. We recommend putting it in a safety deposit box or a fire proof safe that is bolted to the floor. You want your memories to last forever, so safeguard them. Also, print out copies of your photographs. We DON'T recommend that you print from home, that just doesn't do professional photographs justice. We also think that going to local 1 hour photos or super centers or pharmacies aren't the best choices either. Uploading on line does two things. One, it gives your photos an extra storage place, further safeguarding them, and it gives you a quality print. For those of you who don't have access to professional labs, one place we recommend is http://www.kodakgallery.com or upload to www.ritzpix.com. We also recommend matte prints over glossy ones. They are easier to see, don't leave smudgy fingerprints as easy and look more professional. If enlarging photos, consider the same thing. Photos these days are also made, according to the paper you choose, to last sometimes as long as 100 years. Of course, storing them in a darker place will help. When framing them, consider putting them behind conservation glass so they do not fade. Particularly if they are in a well lit area of your home.
Whatever you do with your photos, make sure that you have plenty of memories showcased in your home and work place. Loved ones also love to have memories of you around, so make sure to make and frame plenty of copies!
