A Frequently Asked Question About Selling Photographs:

Photographs are often bough in a package with the manuscript they accompany. Thus, editors will usually buy the same rights to the pictures that they buy to the manuscript. If they buy photographs independently, they will normally buy the same rights they buy for articles and stories printed in their publications. Ideally, you should sell only one-time rights to photographs, the same rights you would sell to an article, story, or poem.
