Photography and the Law

This book provides an organized and systematic review of the legal issues photographers face. Exploring countless examples drawn from litigated disputes, the text illustrates the legal risks of the industry and what professionals can do to mitigate those risks. Coverage includes many topics not expansively addressed by other books or web resources, including copyright and fair use, licensing, property releases, privacy rights, trademark, insurance, and taxes. This practical, easy-to-use resource provides comprehensive identification and examination of the legal issues, written specially for photographers, by a photographer and lawyer.
