-> My slant is that if he paid you to help him with the wedding (in other words -> he booked the wedding and got you to also shoot with him) he has the major -> interest in rights. If it is something that was done 50-50 in payoff, he -> coud maintain his half was what he put on the website. You could use -> another shot and so claim that. -> -> The question of image rights seems to boil down to whether you acted as his -> agent or not. I'm personally not aware of any true partnership weddings not -> done by actual partners in business but have knowledge of numerous other -> weddings booked by one party and shot by a second party. The rights belong -> to the first party, all else being equal, as he hired the second photog to -> shoot it for him and the purchasers pay the one who did the hiring. That -> serves to identify who owns image and reprint rights, in my opinion. -> Hi Bob All that threw me for a second. Then I thought back to the pictures I recently mentioned that I took for the newspaper. It was their film, and they own the pictures, even if my name did land on some of them. Basically, I don't like that situation as I have had some pretty decent photos published that I can't share with you as I have no copies, other than the dotty things right out of the newspaper. I can't make reprints. If anyone wanted a copy, the paper made money selling the pictures. Bummer.
