Copyright Information

Photographers are always concerned with people stealing their images.  You hear about watermarks and copyrighting your photos.  The problem is, that a great deal of photographers are not sure what the copyright does or how to copyright a photo.  Well I have few web sites that will help you better understand how to protect your images.

Scott Kelby’s blog had a two part video interview with an attorney who specializes in Intellectual Property.  The interviews are short and very informative.  You can find this interview on Scott’s blog.

Hyperphocal.com has a nice simple web page that explains Copyrights and what you should know.  Go to Hyperphocal.com.

The Professional Photographers of America have a website Copyright Defense, this site has information on Copyrights and what is happing with Copyright laws.  Their web site states they “…are the imaging profession’s copyright watchdog”

And last, but not least is the US Copyright website.  The site has a lot of information and you can even file for copyrighting on the web site.

I hope this all helps to address your questions on Copyrights.
