How to Use Stock Photos Legally (Common Mistakes to Avoid)
The average individual does not understand how to use stock photos legally. Contrary to popular belief, not all photos that are readily available are subject to fair use. While stock photos can be a useful addition to your websites, marketing materials, etc., they are subject to copyright laws and known copyright restrictions.
