Sorry for not putting this in the original thread, but it's kind of a diferent part of the topic.
I want a decent cover photo -- so.....I asked a professional photographer friend ... 232 dollar sitting fee, which I kind of understand....but then she said that there is a licensing fee for every copy...
So I pay 232 for a sitting fee which I know will be done well and then I think I pay for a digital copy and then for each copy I produce from the CD production company, I have to pay a licensing fee. She said she typically charges 50 dollars for a one time use like a t shirt. So if it's on the cover AND the CD, I pay for that...I guess. I haven't called her back.
Not sure I am down with this -- for example, the songs we do, I own 100 percent -- the recordings, etc...all of it are my property.
