Fairpicture – Information for creators

Fairpicture pitches visual creators around the world to clients, giving you access to more assignments. 

Here’s how it works: Once you sign up on fairpicture.org, we’ll call you to discuss our potential collaboration in detail. If we’re a match, we’ll put your Fairpicture portfolio online. Once you’re ready to go, we propose your portfolio to clients who approach us looking for locally and ethically-produced visual stories

From the initial client request to final invoicing, we’ll save you time and money by taking care of the administrative work and by streamlining the production process.

Fairpicture isn’t a traditional creative agency. Instead, we provide tools and systems to support your work with clients, making sure you can maintain your voice and perspective. So, what does this look like? 

We promote you to our network of new and existing clients with regularly posted case studies and your personal Fairpicture portfolio. With the support of our platform and operations team, we facilitate easy and smooth communication between you and the client. What’s also key is we take responsibility when you need support, have questions, or if you need external mediation with customers. We are here for you. By working with us, you’ll have access to the Fairpicture infrastructure which helps enable fair and smooth processes for ethical storytelling. This includes tools like the Fairpicture Consent App, which is used to collect and manage informed consent from the people depicted in the images. 

Our community’s aim is to remove bureaucratic and logistical hurdles and enable what we actually strive for: a dignified way of interacting with each other. 

That’s right: Fairpicture doesn’t charge visual creators any fees to sign up on our platform. We also do the portfolio work for you for free. Once we found a match for you with one of our clients, we charge a sliding fee based on your earnings with that specific client. Plus, we manage your reviews, contracts and payments, so that you never chase after a client for your money again.
