I have a friend who mentioned to me that she wanted to get some enlargements of some of her wedding pictures and asked me about whether or not she could do so without infringing on the photographer's rights. She hasn't tried to get her prints because she thinks that she is not allowed to because she did not take the pictures. She does not have a release but she does have all the (film) negatives. Does this mean that she has the rights to print? I assume that if the photographer did not want them making prints, he/she would have kept the negatives and offered reprint services. What do you all think? Is having the original film negatives a kind of release in itself?
