Reproduction rights
Reproduction rights (where granted) are strictly limited to the use, and timing if/where applicable, specified on this website. An agreement must be reached with Lesley Fayers / Lesley Fayers Photography ("LF/LFP") before the pictures are used for a different purpose, and, where applicable, after any agreement to use has expired.

Reproduction rights granted are personal to the client/purchaser and may not be assigned, nor may any picture submitted to the client/purchaser be loaned or transferred to third parties, save for the purpose(s) agreed to.

LF/LFP reserves the right to refuse to supply or grant a reproduction licence to a third party when requested to do so by the client/purchaser. Reproduction rights are not issued exclusively unless specified.

Copyright
The entire copyright in the pictures is retained by LF/LFP at all times, throughout the world.
LF supplies the technical and artistic ability to illustrate an idea photographically.

No property or copyright in any pictures shall pass to the client/purchaser whether on its submission or on the grant of reproduction rights. LF asserts her moral right to be identified as the author of her work in accordance with sections 77 and 78 of Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.

Model Release
This is a signed release from a person who can be identified within a photo (or the parent or guardian if under the age of 18), whereby he/she consents to the use of his/her likeness for all purposes described in the release.
Note: Written releases are not required in many circumstances, e.g. crowd scenes containing anonymous people and, in general, public places.

Property Release
This is a signed release from the owner(s) of a property, which is identifiable as depicted in a photo, who consents for the image to be used for all purposes as described in the release.
