Palm Beach, FL // Photographed by Trevor Melton
For architectural and real estate photographers

License the work you’ve already shot

The architect, builder, designer and brands in the frame could each license your photographs and film. Resid finds them, prices each license and drafts the email.

No card to start, and no monthly fee on Pay as you go.

Built by a working architectural photographer.

How one shoot becomes many licenses

From an address you shot to a paid license, in three steps.

01

Add a property you shot

A house, an office, a hotel or a restaurant. Resid finds the architect, builder, developer, designer and brands, and how to reach each one.

02

Deliver it to your client

Photographs and film in one gallery, downloads included or paid for first. Never a fee per delivery.

03

License it to everyone else

A fee for every company and an email in your voice, from your own inbox. They select from the same gallery and pay on the license page.

Client delivery

Deliver every shoot, with no fee per delivery

Your client opens their photographs and film, ready, and takes them in one press.

  • Downloads included, or after they pay. The amount goes to you.
  • A listing site with every delivery, and a copy for the MLS.
  • Photographs and film in one gallery. Nothing to upload anywhere else.
  • Everyone else who opens it can select and license the rest.

Three deliveries a month on Pay as you go. Unlimited on Pro.

What one frame could earn

You see a room Resid sees seven licenses

The architect drew it. The builder built it. A designer furnished it, and four brands made what’s in it. Each could license the photographs you already delivered.

The founder story

I added $50K to $100K a year licensing my own work. By hand, for years. Then I built Resid.

I am an architectural and luxury real estate photographer in Palm Beach. I have photographed more than $8 billion in real estate for some of the top builders, architects and agents in the country.

Somewhere along the way I realized the shoots I had already delivered were worth far more than the one fee I charged for them. The photographs the developer paid for, the architect wanted, and so did the builder. So I started licensing my archive by hand. It worked, and it added real money every year, but it took hours of tracking down who to contact, guessing what to charge and chasing every reply.

I looked for something that would do it for me. Nothing did, so I built it. Now it is yours.

On every plan, with no fee per booking. Your own address on Pro.

What photographers ask

The fine print, first

Can I use Resid only to deliver?

Yes. Deliver every shoot to the client who hired you, with no fee per delivery. When you are ready, the same gallery licenses the work to every other company on the project.

Will my clients mind being asked?

Licensing is ordinary business for builders, architects and brands. Every email is an offer in your voice, from your own inbox, and never assumes they used your work. Follow-ups go only if you switch them on.

Do I need Gmail?

No. Every email opens in your own mail, written, addressed and signed. Connect Gmail and it sends in one press, from your inbox. Resid never reads your mail.

Do I keep my copyright?

Always. Resid claims no ownership of your work. No one trains AI on it, not Resid and not anyone Resid works with.

Are my clients still mine?

Yes. Export every company and contact as a CSV file, on any plan.

What does it cost?

Pay as you go costs nothing until a license is paid, then Resid keeps 15%. Pro is $79 a month, keeps 5%, and is free for your first 14 days.

All of it is in writing, in the Terms, the Privacy Policy and the FAQ.
