Question: Photography crediting question!?
I want to send copies of my photos from an event to the promoters, to use as they see fit!. All I want in return is credit as the photographer!. I will include the following statement with the photos:

By my submission of these photos to XYZ, I agree that these images can be used on their website(s) or for promotional uses!. XYZ will print "Photos Courtesy of SQ+2" legibly, crediting myself as the photographer and will notify me by emailing me the links or mailing me copies of the publications for my portfolio!. Thank you for your consideration!.

Is this how it's done!? Any other suggestions!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

It doesn't read as a professional agreement!. Try:

I am submitting these photos, granting you non-exclusive North American publication rights free of charge providing that you display a photo credit for [First Name Last Name]!.

Mandating that they e-mail you every time they use the photo is an onerous burden that most users would just as soon do without!. They will, therefore, probably not use the photos!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
