F.A.Q.

How do I gain access?  
Only bonafide media can gain access to the archive.  If you are an editor looking for access please contact us.  

Are all your images on the AP Image archive as well?
No.  All images that were added to the Four Seam archive after June 2011 are on the AP server, however we are still in the process of getting older images into their archive from before then.

How much for usage? 
This depends on several factors including print run, size, placement, etc.  Note that there is absolutely never any free usage allowed.  Credit is always with payment, not in place of it.

Do you sell prints?
No, we do not sell prints to the general public at this time but are working on it.

I'm a player in the photos (or their family), can I gain access?
Please contact us using the link at the top of this page for information.

Can I download an image if I'm a player (or their family)?
No, downloads are not allowed to anyone but approved media outlets. 

Are your photographers available for freelance assignments? 
Yes, we have a large group of photographers who may be able to help, as well as a long list of others who we highly recommend if one of our photographers is not available.  Please send any information using the contact link at the top of this page.  Include where the event is, what type of event, what day, what time, pay rate, etc.

I'm a photographer and want to join Four Seam, how?
Four Seam has many areas covered and will not be adding photographers in those areas as long as they stay "well covered".  There are a few areas that need coverage and we are openly searching for.  You must have a knowledge of Photo Mechanic and professional grade equipment along with meeting certain other criteria.
