A word about copyright:
Questions are often asked about who owns the copyright to photograph(s) that have been taken. Under current laws affecting the United Kingdom and throughout the European Union, unless specifically agreed otherwise, copyright of photographs and photographic images remains with the photographer – even when the photographer has been paid to take the photograph(s).
Copyright gives the photographer the right to control how their images are used. This right is given by the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act of 1988.
Photographers keep the copyright to their work but may give clients the right to use the images in a number of different ways as required. This means that the intended use of the images by clients, including copying, selling or distribution etc, must be first agreed with the photographer and an appropriate fee paid where necessary. Any use outside of the contract must be re-negotiated to avoid breaking the law.
We cover County Durham, Teesside and North Yorkshire and beyond for all photography requirements.
