photo credits
Photographer name listings
Photo credits identify who took or owns a photograph, typically appearing in small text near an image or gathered at the end of a publication.
They acknowledge the photographer or image source and fulfill legal or licensing requirements: Photo credits appear on page 47.
In casual use, someone might ask What are the photo credits? meaning who shot the pictures.
