Legal Issues for Photographers with Stephanie Richer
August 14 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
A good attorney knows the law – and so does a good photographer. Legal issues are at play when you capture a photo, from permits to intellectual property rights. The good news is that you only need to know enough to recognize when you need expert advice from a lawyer.
Join the Professional Photographers of East Tennessee (PPETN) for our yearly legal update, featuring Stephanie Richer, an expert in photography law. This year’s session will focus on crucial topics that every photographer should be aware of:
Permits and Passes: Understand the legal requirements for shooting in various locations and how to obtain necessary permissions.
Use of Others’ Works (even as “inspo”): Learn the legalities of using others’ works for inspiration or in your projects, and avoid copyright infringement.
Liability: Get insights on protecting yourself from legal claims related to your photography.
Contracts: Discover the key elements of contracts and how to create agreements that safeguard your rights and interests.
AI: Explore the emerging legal issues surrounding the use of artificial intelligence in photography, from AI-generated content to ethical considerations.
This interactive session will include real-world case studies, practical advice, and a Q&A segment where you can get your specific legal questions answered. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced professional, this class will equip you with the knowledge to navigate the legal landscape of photography confidently.
