Our photo policy seems to be a work in progress.
But I will remind you to make sure you include a written use policy that
clearly defines what the fee you charged actually applies to. It's usually
standard practice to charge a separate use fee apart from the proof of the
print itself.
Most use policies I have seen state quite clearly that just purchasing an
image from you does not grant any rights to publish, etc., that image in any
form.

"The ordinary distinctions in society are often vague, and imply no just
pre-eminence: rank and titles are
adventitious things and instead of designating merit or virtue, are
frequently the baubles of imbecility, or
the sparkling decorations of meretricious pageantry"

William Griffith, on behalf, and by order of the New-Jersey Society for
promoting the gradual Abolition
of Slavery, Twelfth Month (December) 20th, 1803
