These terms govern your access to the Cloud Expansion Studio website and the use of the visual material presented here. By browsing the portfolio or contacting us through the site, you agree to the conditions below. Please read them carefully before licensing any imagery or commissioning a project.
Cloud Expansion Studio is an independent visual practice focused on aerial photography and digital post-production. The website serves as a portfolio of long-term photographic series, commissioned essays for architects and developers, and archival material licensed to editorial and production clients. Each project page includes technical notes on light conditions, flight permits, equipment, and the editing workflow in Capture One and Photoshop, so clients and collaborators understand the process behind each image.
You may view and share the content on this site for personal, non-commercial reference. Any reproduction, distribution, or public display of the photographs, whether in print, digital media, or broadcast, requires a separate license agreement. When you contact us with a commission or a licensing request, you agree to provide accurate information about the intended use, the territory, and the duration of that use. We rely on this information to prepare a precise quote and a clear contract.
Cloud Expansion Studio commits to delivering images that match the agreed brief, the technical specifications, and the visual direction discussed before the assignment. For commissioned work, we handle flight planning, permit applications where required, and the full post-production workflow. We deliver files in the format and resolution stated in the agreement. We do not guarantee specific weather conditions or light during a scheduled flight; if a session is cancelled due to unsafe flying conditions, we will propose an alternative date.
The content on this website is provided for informational purposes. While we make every effort to keep the portfolio accurate and current, we do not warrant that the site is free from errors or uninterrupted. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Cloud Expansion Studio is not liable for indirect damages arising from the use of the website or from decisions made based on the visual material presented. For commissioned projects, our liability is limited to the value of the specific assignment, as stated in the signed agreement.
All photographs, series, and written content on this site remain the intellectual property of Cloud Expansion Studio unless otherwise stated. Licensing an image does not transfer copyright. The client receives usage rights limited to the scope defined in the license agreement. Any use beyond that scope, including alteration of the image without consent, is not permitted. Archival material licensed to editorial clients follows the same principle: the license covers the specific publication and context agreed in writing.
We reserve the right to restrict access to the website or to refuse a commission or license request if the intended use conflicts with our editorial standards, safety regulations, or legal requirements. Either party may terminate a commissioned project with written notice. If the project is cancelled before the flight date, no fee is charged. If cancellation happens after the flight or during post-production, the client is responsible for the work completed up to that point.
These terms may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in our practice, in licensing standards, or in legal requirements. The current version will always be available on this page. Significant changes that affect active agreements will be communicated directly by email. Continued use of the website after a revision constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
If you have questions about these terms, about licensing a specific image, or about the conditions of a commissioned project, write to us at info@thecloudexpansion.com. We respond to legal and licensing inquiries within two working days.
