Enhanced License

do I need to buy Enhanced License form Shutterstock if I want to use it's photo on my course?

As far as I can tell, the only reason you would need an enhanced licence is if your "production budget" is in excess of 10,000 USD.

Check out their trustpilot rating: https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.shutterstock.com

The reviews chime with my experience of them. I don't trust them. How do you prove your budget was less than 10,000 USD? I wouldn't be surprised if you had a hit course, they come after you.

hi, RICH where do you source your photos from?

[RichChesterwood]

Sorry I'm not much help here as I rarely use photos, but I did use Shutterstock once and regretted it deeply.

Would you mind sharing with me why so maybe I'll not do the same mistake?

[RichChesterwood]

Read the trustpilot reviews linked above. Same experience.
