Answer 2

Go to shutterbug.com and do a Search for "Privacy Rights & Copyrights". The article was in the May 2007 issue of Shutterbug Magazine and written by Maria Piscopo. Do the reading suggested in the article.

Here is one excerpt:

What Is Protected?
"Because I am not an attorney, I am required to tell you that I cannot give legal advice so this discussion is from an "industry custom" perspective; that is, my day-to-day experiences with these issues as a photo rep.
