License terms

The license, when there is one.

Effective November 13, 2026.

These terms describe how Bakasmedia LLC licenses the photographs in its catalog. They are not themselves a license. A license exists only when Bakasmedia LLC sends a written agreement for a named use and that agreement is accepted.

Grant

The agreement names the photograph, the licensee, the medium, the territory, the term, and any limit on impressions, circulation, or placements. Use outside those limits is unlicensed. The licensee may not sublicense the photograph unless the agreement allows it.

Copyright stays here

Bakasmedia LLC keeps the copyright and every right it holds in the photograph. A license does not assign ownership, and it does not let the licensee register the photograph in their own name.

Territory and term

Catalog photographs are offered for the United States. The term is the period written in the agreement. When the term ends, the licensee stops using the photograph and removes it from places they control, except for copies the agreement expressly lets them keep as a record.

Previews

Watermarked files on bakasmedia.com are previews for evaluation. They are not delivery files. Removing the watermark does not create a license.

Credit

Where the agreement requires a credit, use “Bakasmedia LLC” with the catalog number.

Law

The agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New Mexico, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The federal copyright law of the United States, Title 17 of the United States Code, also applies to the photograph.
