Copyright

The Federal Copyright Act protects photographers by giving the author of the photograph the exclusive right to reproduce photographs created by them. This includes the right to control the making of copies.

It is illegal to copy, scan, print, reproduce or electronically transmit these photographs without written permission from the studio. Violators of this Federal Law will be subject to its civil and criminal penalties.

The Professional Photographers of America and its member studios take an active role in protecting the intellectual rights of photographers through monitoring, legislation and enforcement. Professional studios are proud of the work they create and can't take the chance of jeopardizing their reputations by having copies that don't represent the true quality of their work.

Please feel free to discuss your needs, concerns and questions with your studio.
