    Please tell me what does SCENARIC LOCATION mean? And you "Rackeyed" the location?? Is this new English? Never heard of these words before. The use of spell check can help a lot..:)

    buying exclusive rights for wedding and events shots?

    Thanks EiRik for the post and commenting. What you said is exactly what I was going to say but you did it in a much nicer way than I would have replied. :) I just choose to ignore the ignorance...

    buying exclusive rights for wedding and events shots?

    This has been a very informative and interesting read to say the least. Thanks Vince for your posts and keen knowledge on the subject. In all the years I have been a photographer, around 15 or so, I have only run into the problem of copyright issues about two times. And one of those was just...

    buying exclusive rights for wedding and events shots?

    Very true..for a couple hundred dollars and a few photos, it is certainly not worth it. Everything would have been clear had I seen the contract before I even did the job. It's just as much as my fault though since I accepted the last minute job without even agreeing to their terms and...

    buying exclusive rights for wedding and events shots?

    It's interesting though how this magazine for example was so upset that I used some of the photos that I took for them in my portfolio as they went on and on that they own the copyright to them. When I disagreed they compromised and said please don't use them until we publish the magazine. When...

    buying exclusive rights for wedding and events shots?

    Check out this link for info about the copyright laws here in Singapore. It's good information and will back up my point about any artist owning the copyright to his/her work. The only exception to this law is if you are an employee for a publication, newspaper, or magazine whereby they ask you...

    buying exclusive rights for wedding and events shots?

    I'm not sure where you get this kind of information but I totally disagree with you. What you are saying right there is like a slap in the face of all the pro photographers out there who do this as a living or otherwise. Can you show me where in the law does it state that any photograph a...

    buying exclusive rights for wedding and events shots?

    I find it interesting that this subject has come up a few times, including a problem that I have run into recently along the same lines. I have discovered many a time when I have done a job for somone, that they automatically assume that the photos I take for them, belong to them outright...

    Issue with Magazine over contract. What to do?

    Hi. I was recently hired by a local magazine to do two shoots, both events, and I am now facing an issue with the magazine over the contract. As I was called up at the last minute for this shoot, I was told over the phone the time and place to shoot and what my payment would be. I accepted and...

    no DSLR camera allowed in F1 races ?

    True. It's not the only route but it is one way. If you work for the press, that is also one way to get free ticket to shoot.

    no DSLR camera allowed in F1 races ?

    Want to know the secret of becoming an official photographer for the F1? It's called: NETWORK, NETWORK, NETWORK. And it also helps in knowing the right people, being creative and having connections. It always helps. Give you a little hint. There is a very well known PR firm here that is...

    The Harajuku 'Girls' (content warning)

    I know it wasn't. But why use a misleading title like that? Has nothing to do with Harajuku or "girls". More like a cross-dressing gay man.. but to each it's own I guess.

    The Harajuku 'Girls' (content warning)

    Doesn't do anything for me. If you're going to use that title, at least use a Japanese woman. And why the content warning? Hardly raised my pulse a slight bit. Very mild shots in my opinion.

    F18, F16, T-50, A380, etc

    These are by far, the BEST plane pictures I have seen in a long time. I unfortunately didn't go this year but after looking at your wonderful shots, I wish I had. The details are amazing. So clear, sharp and the colours are brilliant. Did you do any post processing? And one of my favorites of...

    “No Photography” - Does we photographers have rights too?

    Great post CS Tan. In my opinion, you were well within your rights to stand on public property (the beach) and take pictures of some statues that one, belonged to another stall and two, had nothing to do with the ice cream place. For a staff member to come yelling and screaming or even telling...
