While all your info was good advice and much appreciated, I have seen professional, ethical photographers that have been doing this for years still get ripped off by trusted clients. Copyright is a nice word....and legally it should cover you if you have done all the so called "paperwork".......however, it is a drawn out process when you find a client violating your copyright. I would rather be out photographing than playing lawyer. Yes, I appreciate the fact that it is a necessary evil, and I do all the paperwork, but I don't like it and I want to SAFELY get away from paper proofs in specific areas of my photography. Thank you all for the comments. So far, I have found that Brian is absolutely correct in his assessment. Cheers! Colette
