This presentation will focus on two topics of importance to photographers \u2014 an introduction to copyright and a discussion of limitations that can be placed on where and when you can take a photograph and the uses you can make of that photograph.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Copyright is controlled exclusively by Federal law and provides important protections \u2014 and limitations \u2014 to you as the creator of a photograph. You automatically own the copyright in a photograph you make for your own use (if you\u2019re employed by someone else, other factors come into play), but once you share a photograph, things become more complicated. \u00a0In addition, your rights and remedies change significantly if you take the time to file a copyright registration. \u00a0In some instances, it may be worthwhile to take legal action against a party that has made unauthorized use of one if your images. \u00a0In addition to the more complicated remedies available in the past, we now have a less complex, and less expensive, option \u2014 the Copyright Claims Board. We will also touch upon the \u201cfair use\u201d exceptions and the complications that can arise if you employ artificial intelligence to make or enhance an image.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Limitations of when and where you can take a photograph, and how you can use it, will vary considerably depending on circumstances. We\u2019ll go over the factors you need to take into account and what your options are if someone tells you \u201cyou aren\u2019t allowed\u201d to make photos of a particular scene. \u00a0It can be complicated, and often the best option is to use common sense and common courtesy, regardless of what you have the \u201cright\u201d to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
