Stock Artists Alliance

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Founded in 2001, the Stock Artists Alliance is an international trade association of photographers who produce images for stock photography. The mission of SAA is to support and protect the business interests of professional stock photographers with regard to the worldwide distribution of their intellectual property.

As an advocate for its members, SAA encourages the use of fair contracts and ethical behavior at all levels of the industry. SAA monitors the stock photography industry and serves as an ombudsman for its members' interests in dealing with agencies and other distribution channels.

SAA's first major negotiation was with Getty Images to improve the photographers' contract.
