 About
ruralphotos.com
Ruralphotos.com is owned and operated by Leonie Scarlett, who has
long specialised in rural and
agricultural photography.
Through previous
experience working in the stock photo industry
Leonie realised
that there was a demand for more authentic and detailed rural and
agricultural photography. Given her long-standing connection with
the land, her passion for its people and love of photography, Leonie
saw she had the ideal qualifications to set up a specialist library
that would meet this need.
 The
ruralphotos.com Philosophy
Ruralphotos.com
is an ever growing library of agricultural images. The aim is to
create a
collection of
photographs that details life on the
land, from specific breeds of animals and
plants and specialised
farming
practices to general agricultural
landscapes.
But it is the
photographs of people that form the backbone of the ruralphotos.com
library. Drawing from
her passion
for photographing people who are simply "being themselves" Leonie is
building a library of rural faces that is widely recoginised
for it's remarkable authenticity.
Every person,
every family Leonie photographs lives, works and breathes
agricultural life. It's this genuine rural spirit that makes Leonie's
pictures so special.
 Talent
payments and rights control
The other
critical element in creating great people pictures is trust
and integrity, a philosophy that
underpins the way in which Ruralphotos.com works, both with its clients and
subjects.
As a result all
subjects agree to be photographed with the knowledge that they will
receive a fee based on the value of sales. Subjects are also
contacted before any sale agreement is signed with a ruralphotos.com
client, to confirm they are happy to be associated with the
publishing or advertising project in question. As a result,
ruralphotos.com is structured strictly as a rights managed
library.
