Dear all
I have a specific question on photo permits and commercialization via fine art prints:
Lets say I want to shoot a nice location requiring a permit say the interior of a roman ancient lbrary, a public beach or something similar.
How does it generally work re permits? Is there a distinction between private and commercial and for the latter yiu sometimes dont get a permission or it costs more?
Lets take ancient rome for example: a picture on a public square should not be a problem and selling prints neither? What about a beach? Local community permission where the price varies?
Do some people just shoot “wild”?
Do you need to plan long in advance? Hire a production company?
Does it make a difference if you do limited fine art prints vs large scale licensing?
So when Thomas Struth photographes the Louvre from inside - he probably needed permission to do it in the first place and the. pay for a commercial license?
Guess also times have changed in the last twenty years ans some places are inaccessible?
Aerials are probably never a problem?
Appreciate any insights!
