Licensing & Commissions

Distinctive monochrome photography for publishing, commissioned projects and commercial spaces.

Alongside my fine-art print practice, I offer selected photographic licensing and commissioned work for publishers, designers, organisations and businesses. Existing images can be licensed for creative use, or new photography can be produced in response to a specific location, subject or brief.

Publishing & Cover Licensing

Selected P Scotter photographs are available for licensing for book covers, editorial publishing, album artwork and other narrative-led creative projects.

The collection is particularly suited to literary fiction, crime, psychological thrillers, memoir and work exploring isolation, memory, transition and the human experience.

Existing Image Licensing

Existing photographs can be licensed according to the intended use, format, territory, duration and level of exclusivity required.

Bespoke Cover Photography

Where a project requires something more specific, I can develop and produce original photography in response to a manuscript, theme, location or creative brief.

Every project is considered individually. Please get in touch to discuss the work, intended usage and timescale.

Commissioned Photography

I am available for selected photographic commissions that suit my monochrome style and narrative approach.

Rather than applying a fixed visual formula, I work with each client to understand the subject, location and purpose of the project before developing an appropriate photographic response.

Commissions may include:

  • Concept-led location or studio photography

  • Environmental portraiture

  • Landscape and architectural studies

  • Industrial and heritage projects

  • Photography created around a personal story, place or experience

Projects can be developed from an existing idea or shaped collaboratively from an initial conversation. The final scope, deliverables, usage and timescale are agreed before the work begins.

Corporate & Editorial Photography

I undertake selected assignments for businesses, charities, cultural organisations and public bodies seeking photography with atmosphere, character and a strong sense of place.

Rather than producing generic corporate imagery, my approach focuses on the people, environments and details that give an organisation its identity.

Suitable projects may include:

  • Environmental portraits

  • Workplaces, craftspeople and working processes

  • Architecture and interiors

  • Industrial and heritage locations

  • Editorial features and organisational stories

  • Photography for websites, publications, campaigns and annual reports

Each commission is planned around the brief and intended use. Deliverables, timescale and commercial usage are agreed and quoted before the project begins.

How a Project Works

Every project begins with a conversation about what you need, how the photography will be used and what you want the finished work to communicate.

1. Initial Conversation

We discuss the subject, intended use, location, timescale, creative direction and approximate budget.

2. Proposal

I provide a clear proposal outlining the photographic approach, deliverables, usage licence, timescale and agreed cost.

3. Photography & Selection

The shoot is planned and completed, followed by a considered selection and monochrome edit of the strongest images.

4. Delivery

The finished high-resolution photographs are delivered digitally in the agreed formats, together with confirmation of the permitted usage.
