Info about photography for commercial use and copyright

It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words.

Photography is the most important part of the advertising of a business.

The advantage of being a photographer making web pages is that the photos tell the story.

Every project is estimated according to what it needs.

If you provide your own photos from another photographer you must have written consent from the photographer that took the photo and agree to indemnify and hold David Seri harmless from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses including lawyer’s fees, arising from any unauthorized use of an image without permission.

Remember:

To take a good photo is more complicated than it looks like. Lots of things have to coincide to take the perfect photo. It helps to have the right equipment, technical knowledge, dedication and even good luck. Add to these the right light and weather conditions, and of course, lots of talent from the models. My photos are not casuality, they are carefully planned and treated with alot of dedication and hard work.

For the dedication and sacrifice that this occupation takes, we are bothered that some companies, magazines, and websites copy our photos illegally for their own commercial use, without the authorization of the photographer or model. This piracy practice is illegal. Is true that many companies meet the photographers and models requirements to sell their products, but there are also other companies that don’t do this. These people copy photos from magazines and internet and use them for their sales in the local market. They do this without the consent of the photographer, who legally owns the copyright of the photograph. Also, many models have exclusive sponsors and their image cannot be used commercially by another company that doesn’t have a contract with him.

We will be carefully protecting our images from piracy. We are prepared to take any legal action necessary if we find out that someone is using or copying our images without previous permission. ( This can be easily avoided ).
