Hi All,
The focus is only on the wedding album. I believe that the copyright
of the wedding album must mandatorily go to the bride and groom and
not the photographer who is hired to provide the service of taking
photographs. I have listed down the reasons in my blog at
http://missingrainbow.blogspot.com/2008/06/copyright-of-wedding-album.html
Can you guys comment on it? If anybody feels the way I feel, can you
provide any further valid reasons to support it. (If this is not the
right forum, please direct me to the correct forum.)
Thank you.
Rgds,
anna

You said: That photographer basically wants to leech some money from my
brother, every time my brother wants a copy of his wedding album, to share
with family and friends.
I say: Your brother wants to leech from the photographer...he wants
something for nothing.

OK, you're retarded.
One of the primary reasons professional photographers seek to make
future copies of their work is so that they can control the quality.

This is what gets newsgroups a bad name.
Yes the OP is wrong on so many levels.
It is the job of other people to educate him if they wish to take up the
challenge
BUT
it can be done without resorting to abuse.
There are lots of polite words in the English language that can be used.
Keep it friendly.

My thoughts are not clouded. Remember that my brother had paid money
for the services rendered. There is no leeching there. But when the
photographer charges more than the market rate to give a copy of the
wedding album to my brother (who has no choice because of the greedy
use of copyright law), leeching is there. Do you see my reasoning?
By asserting the copyright (I still believe it is abuse or skewed
interpretation of copyright law), my brother cannot get competitive
prices (by hiring a different photographic company for printing an
album) available in the so-called free market.

Correct, each got what they bargained for.

The question of customer awareness comes into picture because my
brother was not even aware of this issue till he requested a soft-copy
of the wedding photos so that he can easily share with family and
friends over the Internet. Now he regrets his decision of hiring that
photographer. Maybe he has learnt his lesson well, and next time will
be prepared to ask the right questions before hiring a photographer.
But don't be too dismissive of customers. Customers might be common
people but when they organize they normally get what they need.
Rgds,
anna
