Shutterstock’s library of 45 million+ editorial images – typically used by publishers in magazines, newspapers, textbooks, and news websites – can now be used by brands and agencies for commercial purposes. This exciting new offer comes after securing an exclusive partnership with Greenlight, the global leader in rights clearances and product licensing.
From curating images to working through Greenlight to secure all necessary third party approvals to licensing the image, Shutterstock will ensure all client needs will be met. Brands can now leverage Shutterstock’s extraordinary editorial library of celebrities, past and present, to help execute their creative vision.
Greenlight has negotiated over 20,000 clearances in the past decade and holds strong, long-standing relationships with rights holders worldwide. They exclusively represent the image rights to some of pop culture’s biggest names, including Albert Einstein, Andy Warhol, Charlie Chaplin, Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Martin Luther King, Jr., Marvin Gaye, and Sophia Loren, among others. Below are just a few images of these icons you can license commercially, only with Shutterstock. For more available iconic images across music, film, art, and fashion, click here.
