If paying for an online backup service, I would suggest tarsnap. The
backups are encrypted from the user computer, its source code is
available (with an unfree license, but that's far more than most
services) and a reasonable price (50€ = $66.40 would provide a credit of
221 GB/month).
The author (Colin Percival) is a FreeBSD hacker, which I consider better
than paying for that to a greedy company.
However, it has the big downside of not having a friendly interface. :(
As photographers are likely to have a lot of data, I think it is worth
looking at the "online backup" idea, but I would prefer if that extra
storage was provided by the company as a sponsorship, rather than buying
it from a company of our choice.

How about prizes like online backup? Some of the pro-alternatives
are quite expensive. They would be very easy to pay for though and
give someone access to. Actually not only backup, but all sorts of
online services could be used.
