To use the photographs for a paid commission, the illustrator should look for photographs with the following Creative Commons licenses:

  1. CC BY - This license allows others to distribute, remix, adapt, and build upon the work, even for commercial purposes, as long as they credit the creator.

  2. CC0 - This license places no restrictions on the use of the work, allowing the illustrator to use the photographs without any need for attribution or permission.

CC-BY-ND (Creative Commons Attribution No Derivatives) would not be suitable in this case, as it does not allow adaptations or modifications of the work.

So, the correct answers are:

  • CC BY
  • CC0
