Move Amazon AMI to another account

Question

I have several machines created with my account. Some of them use S3 storage, some EBS.

Now I need to move these machines to my company account in order to pay for it.

As I know, I can start each machine as a user of my company and create an image.

I wonder if there is a way to simply copy these machines?

You can copy AMI EBS downloads from one EC2 account to another using the technique I wrote here:
