1The Required Credit

Credit is mandatory on every use of a licensed photograph and cannot be waived. No payment, license, or other arrangement confers any right to omit it.

Unless your Confirmation specifies otherwise, the required credit reads, at minimum: Photo Credit: © Nir Regev / TheNaturalAristocrat.com. The preferred form includes the year: Photo Credit: © 2026 Nir Regev / TheNaturalAristocrat.com.

Where the platform supports tagging, tag both the publication and the photographer:

• Instagram: @thenaturalaristocrat and @nirregev3
• X: @aristocrat_the and @nirregev
• Facebook: @TheNaturalAristocrat and @nir.regev8
• Threads: @thenaturalaristocrat and @nirregev3
• Bluesky: @thenaturalarsitocrat.com, @naturalaristocrat.bsky.social, @nirregev.com, and @nirregev.bsky.social
• YouTube: @NirRegev

2Where It Goes

The credit appears with the photograph, every time. In print and online it runs legibly and immediately adjacent to the image: a caption or credit line at the photograph itself, never buried in a general list elsewhere on the page.

In audio-visual use the credit will run in the production credits. Its size, legibility, and placement will be comparable to the other source credits in the same production, and a credit smaller, shorter on screen, or harder to read than the credits around it does not satisfy the License Terms.

3The Link

Online, the credit must link to https://thenaturalaristocrat.com wherever the platform allows a link. Where a placement cannot carry a live link, such as an Instagram caption, the full written credit, including TheNaturalAristocrat.com, is still required. The inability to link never excuses the credit.

4Copy-Ready Credit Lines

Use these lines exactly, replacing nothing but the year:

• Web: Photo Credit: © 2026 Nir Regev / TheNaturalAristocrat.com, with the credit linked to https://thenaturalaristocrat.com.
• Print: Photo Credit: © 2026 Nir Regev / TheNaturalAristocrat.com.
• Broadcast or film: Photo: Nir Regev / TheNaturalAristocrat.com, in the production credits.
• Social: the full written credit in the caption, with the link wherever the platform allows one.

5If the Credit Is Missing

Publishing a photograph without the required credit is a material breach of the License Terms and an infringement of copyright. The credit and copyright-management information are embedded in every file, so a copy published without them is a copy from which they have been removed or altered.

That removal or alteration is independently actionable under 17 U.S.C. § 1202, as is the distribution of any copy known to lack the embedded information. Each violation carries statutory damages of $2,500 to $25,000, with no requirement of registration.

There is no fee for omitting credit and no way to buy one out. Where a photograph is published without it, Live Game Deals LLC d/b/a The Natural Aristocrat, as the authorized licensing representative of Nir Regev, pursues every available remedy, including injunctive relief together with statutory damages, attorneys’ fees, and costs that may substantially exceed any License fee.
