Caring about Copyright
I would love to copy every picture presented by my customers.
But – I want and must be very careful to do things against the copyright law. Copyright, that means, the photographer taking the picture has all the rights on his/her pictures and nobody else.
If the picture has a copyright notice on the back, I can only copy the picture if my client can obtain a written permissions from the photographer who took the pictures. If the picture was taken by a photographer and has no copyright notice on the back, that does not mean there is no copyright on that image and therefore it can only be copied when written permission is granted.
The same copyright law applies to all of my own photography work which I would like to have respected too.
This applies to all professional photographers in Ireland and many other countries. This is a guide for all amateurs too.
Start to think about “copyright”. Respect the work of others.
