Just to remind you: if you own the copyright on the photographs you are in no way required to mention Wikimedia Commons or the license of your photographs, because they are non-exclusive. You can re-release your photographs under any license you want (including commercial non-distributable licenses). Of course, if you want to mention Commons / the license, that's really cool.
I don't know how long the credit may be, but maybe something like this: "Photographs on pages X, X, X by Rama Rama. Released under License X. Distributed by Wikimedia Commons: http://commons.wikimedia.org"

An author has contacted me to use some of my photographs in a book (a big, serious, scholarly, several-volume thing). He contacted me, and several other users, after seeing images on Commons. Consequences:
- Commons does get some visibility, and provides images to serious
work. Cheer up, people !
- The author is enquiring how I wish to be credited. What do you
people think would be a concise yet effective way to mention Wikimedia Commons in such cases ?
