Each photographer or artist will retain all rights to any images submitted – including ownership if applicable – other than those rights licensed in the next sentence:

By contributing an image, you hereby grant to Imagine! Girdwood and its contractors a nonexclusive, worldwide, irrevocable, royalty-free license to reproduce, edit, distribute, and publicly display the images submitted to Imagine! Girdwood for the purpose inclusion as illustrations in the Girdwood Comprehensive Plan or use in related promotional or explanatory materials. 

• Is the main focus of the photograph a recognizable person or group of 2-4 people?

• Are they face-forward to the camera?

• Are they in a non-public space?

If the answer to those three questions are all YES, then you will need to complete a Model Release form for each person and have them sign the form (or their parent/guardian sign if they are under 18).

You can upload a scan of the signed Model Release form or if you are using a mobile phone, take a photo of the signed form.

• 1. The project team will select appropriate images for illustration throughout the plan.

  2. A judging panel consisting of two Imagine! Girdwood officers and the Principal of Huddle AK will select one image for the plan cover and images for each section title page.
