If you are unfamiliar with copyright laws for photography we recommend you read the following quotes from Richard Weisgrau and Michael Remer’s “ASMP's Copyright Guide for Photographers.”

“Copyrights can be valuable intangible assets. The Copyright Act of 1976 made clear that photographers are the copyright owners of their images, except when those images were made as an employee, or when the photographer has conveyed the copyright to another party in a written and signed agreement.”

“Copyright is a right, granted to you (The photographer) by law, to control the copying, reproduction, distribution, derivative use, and public display of your photographs, and to sue for unauthorized use (infringement) of your work.

“This right begins at the moment you fix your photographic expression in a tangible form, that is, when you create the latent image on film. Copyright ownership, bestowed automatically when you make an image, does not depend upon registration with the copyright office or placement of a copyright notice on the image. “

Unless other arrangements are made in advance, all images created by Swanson Images are added to our stock photography library.
