Other situations...
Some scenarios are too ... unique ... to get a standard credit line. Say you're printing a photo on a cake, tattooing it on your arm, or flying it across the sky on a banner. Creative times call for creative measures!
If you're not sure how to credit your photographer, just ask. Appreciation is always welcome in even the most unusual forms!
