Is Photography Licence Necessary?

by Geetika Bhasin / Friday, 29 September 2017 / Published in photography

In every profession, there are certain legal requisites that must be considered and abided by. This is a traditional thing to do if you wish to own a legally safe business. The question in professional photography is that is there a license needed to pursue it as a profession. Let me rephrase it for you, do I require a license to have a photo studio? Well it certainly is!

It is not unusual that people feel bewildered if they really need a license. And I am sure that there will be a lot of people pursuing this profession without a license. If you are among those people, I bet this article will help you in major ways.

For the people that are looking forward to converting their home into a studio, you just need to contact two parties for the lawfulness safeguard- State Licensing Board and Local City Hall.

There are some places where local government parties ask photographers to acquire some type of permit for seamless and profitable operations of their business. It doesn’t matter whether you are transforming your home in a studio or you are renting a place, it is still suggested to reach out to local government and ensure legal legitimacy. This is especially considering the influence of zoning standards on the questionable right to have a business established in residential area.

There are some cities where said licenses are exclusively needed for reasons of zoning organization and are cost free. Whereas, in other cities, permits are sold at a very small price so that the local government can raise some money.

The photo studio can be made at any place in a city and it is usually said that regardless of the local need for a business license, you need to prepare yourself to take care of all kinds of charges and taxes. This is because of the fact that the digital or physical pictures are considered to be products and thus qualify for taxpaying. For the sale of these items, you need to pay tax to the government.

For all the people who take getting license for their photography business for granted, they could find themselves in future troubles with local businesses. It can also damage your professional reputation to a great extent.

You could be really excited for your footing in the business but it is extremely crucial to consider legal logistics before you commence the business and start endorsing it. This act might attract the legal people to first walk in into your studio, even before the customers.

The next big question is, how to get a license-

To-Do List For Getting The License

While you were juggling with thousand thoughts on where to start for getting the legal work done, we prepared this highly simplistic list for you-

  • Filing for business license– For all kinds of professionals, it is imperative to file for business license. You can always refer an attorney in case of any confusion or problem with filing a license. You just have to go to the local township and ask for the business department. They will provide you a form for a business license. You just have to fill the form and take care of the documentation that is needed along with.
  • Filing for Photographer License– It is quite perplexing in case of photography license because most jurisdictions do not require for a photographer to file for a license. But it is always safer to call the local state licensing board to ask if there is any needed licence to pursue photography as a professional in your town or not. Rest depends of what the other person on the phone says to you.
  • Press-Pass– Well, Press Pass is the last form of licensure that you need. For all the individuals that are seeking to spend more time working in event photography then obtaining a press pass is mandatory. These press passes gives you the authority to visit to the events and take pictures as a professional.

This is all for now guys on the topic of having a license for opening a new studio. We say that the best way to pursue a profession is when you do it in a right and safe way with legal associations of your town. Different cities have different rules and all you have to do is to abide the rules that the law of your city implies on you.
