Photos and usage rights via QR card—for people and travel photography
Take photos
and share images –
with consent
and trust.
The people in front of your camera get their photos and decide how they can be used—you get their consent, with verifiable documentation. The process: hand over a QR card, share photos in a protected gallery, clarify usage rights—in 32 languages.
Sound familiar?
“I’ll send you the photo, I promise!”
She was happy, and you meant it. But the address got lost.
She enters her email address herself. You upload, she downloads—the promise is kept.
“Am I even allowed to post this?”
You have a striking portrait, but you’re not allowed to show it. Without consent, it stays on your hard drive.
She scans the card and says yes—and you have her consent. In writing, in her language.
“And then he has my number.”
That’s what she thinks, not you. And that’s why she’d rather say no.
No number, no handle. She enters her email address on Contrima, not with you—you only get it if she wants the photos.
Contrima solves all three with one card.
How Contrima works
01
Hand over the card.
You ask a quick question, take the photo and share the QR card—printed or on your phone, before or after the photo. It says in the person’s language: scan the QR code to get your photos.
02
Make photos available.
The person scans the code, enters their email address and gets their own gallery. You upload the photos—protected, just for them.
03
Clarify usage rights.
The person reads what you plan to do with the photos in their own language and decides. Whether you give the photos as a gift, sell them or exchange them for usage rights, their consent is documented—for both of you.
People photography done right
If you photograph people while you’re out and about, a few questions come up right away: What uses are allowed? Who can publish the images? How will the person photographed receive the images? How can the rules be followed properly?
That’s exactly what Contrima is made for. At its core, it’s a model release—but one for spontaneous encounters. It’s not about contracts with professional models for advertising productions, campaigns or stock photography, but about permission for artistic use: portfolios, exhibitions, books, competitions, social media. Anything that ultimately is art. The person photographed is still a person, not a model—and if they change their mind later, Contrima documents the withdrawal of consent and notifies everyone involved.
As a platform for rights and trust, Contrima puts the connection between photographers and the people they photograph at the centre.
“Contrima means a win-win for photographers and the people they photograph—and is sure to bring more freedom and more fun to photography.”
