I was contacted by a Tech representative who wants me to send them a high resolution copy of a photo I took a while back of Jones Stadium. I'm think it's cool and getting money is really not that important to me, but if it were you, would you ask for money for the photo, or just for credit that you took the photo?

Also in giving them a photo like that, I still maintain the rights to the photo is that correct?

I just talked to a friend who buys a lot of sports photography from Getty Images. They sell exclusive and non exclusive photography. If you're going to buy a photograph and the full rights to that photograph you're gonna be paying a ton. If you buy a non exclusive photo of say Jason Giambi that Sports Illustrated can also purchase it only costs a few hundred bucks.

I'd say write up a contract with Tech, cause you could easily get screwed out of distribution rights of your own photograph etc. Plus I wouldn't put it past Tech to use your image for a media guide and not even give you credit
