Traditionally, the copyright holder will write an agreement spelling out the terms, to be signed by both parties.

Increasingly, skilled amateur artists and photographers are making works available with a Creative Commons license--essentially an agreement spelling out the terms, just as a traditional license, but not requiring signatures. With this, the artist can allow the work to be distributed and used, without being bogged down with paperwork every single time someone decides they like it.
