Photononstop is a Paris-based photographic agency and online image bank founded in 2000. Its catalog contains more than 15,000,000 images from French and European creators, offered under rights-managed and royalty-free terms. Collections include lifestyle, travel, food, cooking, and decoration, while the Onoky collection contains more than 30,000 royalty-free photos. Visitors can search by keyword, color, or submitted image. Photononstop’s researchers search its own three-million-image fund and an international agency network, with those searches offered free. The company also produces custom photography for advertising, catalogs, packaging, corporate image banks, portraits, and company or industrial reports. Quotes are free. Registration is required for advanced features such as personalized image viewers. Licensing terms can limit use by medium, time, print run, placement, size, territory, and other conditions. The contract also limits an image to one copy on one computer, prohibits network use, and requires IPTC data to remain with published images.
