Print Costs -Framed and Unframed Photographs

Arranged by size.

Framing and and matting the picture.

Approximate view of the finished framing
of the picture that I took of the
Stained Glass memorial for the
384th BG(H) 8th Air Force, WWII,
at England's Grafton Underwood Church.

The number of mats used around the picture is totally dependant upon the composition and colors in the picture. Some prints will have double matting while some will have only a single mat. There are some pictures that look best without a mat.

In framing a picture the primary cost is the framing material itself and the amount of glass / plexiglass used. With the mat cost being less than 3% of the total cost of framing a picture I decided not to differentiate between a picture being mated when compared to one without a mat.

The prices reflect the cost of a framing a picture without using any mats.

All framing and matting I do myself.

To purchase a print you can phone, e-mail or print out this order form and mail it to me. Include the page, the name of the image (as referenced in the browser) and the size that you want. I will confirm by e-mailing back a thumbnail version then have it printed and shipped to you by your preferred method.

Definitions of use for categories

Web Page

• Exclusive use of an image on a web page is granted for a period of one year.
• After 1 year the image is available to be used by others companies not in the same business category.
• The image can be used on as many pages within the same web site without restrictions.
• Image can be resized, cropped, contrast changed, hue or other items changed as needed to meet the needs of the page.
• Credit must be given within the web site that the original image is copyrighted by Tom Philo. The notice does not have to be on the same page as the image. (Example: Some images used on this site are © Tom Philo Photography) with a link to www.taphilo.com.

World Publication

A World Publication is any publication that is distributed to the general public that is distributed in general bookstores and newsstands throughout the world with print runs of over 200,000.

• Examples would be Time, Readers Digest, Field and Stream, Le Monde, AOPA, Computer Shopper, Gameworld, PC Magazine, Internet World and so on.

National

A national publication would be one that does not fall into the world category but shows up in bookstores and newsstands with print runs of less than 200,000 but more than 10,000.

• A magazine distributed in only Oregon, Washington, Idaho would be classified as a national publication.

Specialty Interest Publications

• This would be magazines like RC Report, Military History Quarterly, or other low count scheduled national publications that must be subscribed to in order to be received. Generallly print runs of less than 10,000.

Newspaper

Figures calculated would be from the Audit Bureau of Circulation

A large newspaper is defined as those that have a daily circulation of more than 100,000.

A medium newspaper is defined as those that have a daily circulation of less than 100,000 and more than 50,000.

A small newspaper is defined as those that have a daily circulation of less than 50,000 and more than 10,000.

A local newspaper is defined as any scheduled publication (daily, weekly, bi-weekly) that has a circulation of less than 10,000.

Examples:

• San Jose Mercury News, The Oregonian, Seattle Times, Washington Post, New York Times, Miami Herald would be a large newspaper.
• The Columbian (Vancouver Washington) would be a medium sized newspaper (55,000).
• Statesman Journal (Salem, Oregon) would be small sized newspaper.
• Walla Walla Union Bulletin would be a local newspaper or those of Beaverton Valley Times .

In all publications if the image is used as a distinct standalone image then credit must be given. If used as part of a collage or other blended image then it is not necessary to give separate photographic credit.

Quarterly Reports - One Time Publications

• Images are licensed for for use only in that single printing.
• If a publication, like a corporate quarterly report, is published to the web site then an additional $10 is incurred.

Brochure / Flyer / Business Cards / Give Aways

This would include tri-fold brochures, single sheet flyers, business cards, and other items that are given away for promotional purposes. You could license an image that is placed on coffee cups that are given away for example.

• You will have use of the image as long as you want to use it (no renewal fee) for that particular publication / item.
• You have exclusive use of it for the first year in your area.
• After 1st year then others firms can license the image. However I will not allow it to be used in other similar industries since that could confuse people (like diluting a trademark) due to them see different companies using the same image. It is, in effect, reserved for use by that one company in that particular industry as long as you want to use it.
• If a single image is to be used in a campaign where three or more different promotional methods are employed then a 25% discount is applied to the cost of each use. Example: 1 image used on flyer, coffee cup and business card then 3 * 35 * .75 = $78.75 to use that image.

Permanent Image Rights

Permanent ownership of an image is granted on a case by case basis and is subject to negotiation. Base price to permanently own the copyrights to an image is $400.

Scanning prices does not include shipping costs or media costs. USPS currently is $8.00 plus $5.00 S&H. Other methods would be exact costs incurred to ship plus $5.00 S&H. USPS shipments are always insured. FedEx / UPS shipping is currently around $12 to ship a DVD.

Shipping Costs and Methods

Shipping costs for prints is up to 11x14 in size in a mailing tube is exact cost plus the handling fee of min-shipping.inc for sizes under 11x14. Above 11x14 print sizes I will charge the exact shipping costs +$10. I will put multiple prints inside the same mailing tube, usually around 5 per tube, in order to save on shipping costs.

Note: A rough guide as to the cost of shipping via FedEx or UPS is that ground delivery to the East Coast is around $35.00; 2nd Day Air is $55.00; overnight is $90; and Saturday delivery around $100.00.
