We will shortly be updating the Alamy website with some new search features. These include options to search by date and number of people, plus a separate collection of images aimed at advertising and design customers called the 'Commercial Collection'.
The process for adding new images to the Commercial Collection is still under development, but we have decided to launch with a limited number of images that will grow over time. We selected a group of contributors for the launch and then spot-checked their images to ensure that they could supply digital copies of model and property releases where appropriate. Our goal for later in the year is to make inclusion in this collection available to all contributors who have uploaded the necessary releases. Please bear with us while we work on the changes necessary to add more of you to this collection.
For practical reasons we have selected individual suppliers (by pseudonym) rather than individual images. As a result you may find imperfections in the Commercial Collection. The collection is evolving and we are refining the content as we go.
Further details regarding supplying releases will be available in due course. If you would like your collection to be considered for the Commercial Collection and you are confident that you have all necessary model and/or property releases please email Member Services with ‘Commercial Collection inclusion’ as the title of your email.
Images that are in the Commercial Collection remain for sale in 'All of Alamy'.
