How we treat photographers’ work.
PhotoScout is built by a photographer, for photographers. These are the rules the platform holds itself to.
Attribution first
Every map, guide, or tour listed on PhotoScout names its creator and links straight to their own site. Purchases happen there, not here — no middleman checkout, no commission, no copied product content.
We never copy photos
Photos on PhotoScout come from our own licensed catalog sources, with attribution. We do not scrape or re-host photographers’ images. Directory descriptions are written by us — never lifted from a creator’s shop.
External data stays external
When we reference community spot databases, we store links and credits — not their content.
AI that sends traffic to you
Our planner’s job is to get photographers to the right place at the right light. When a creator’s map or guide covers a destination better than we do, the right answer is to point at it.
