- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
Hi, I am new to this site. I am an aspiring photographer...
Last year I took a photo of a lake, and I had it posted on Facebook. Someone, somewhere along the line saw the picture. This person had a relative that recently passed away that used to visit that lake as a child. To make a long story short, they want to know if they can use my picture to etch on a headstone. I don't know how I feel about this. I have never sold or gave anyone permission to use any of my photos. How would I go about doing this. Also the Monument company that will be creating the headstone is the one who contacted me. Should I ask for compensation??? How would I make sure they aren't going to use the photo for profit? If there is anyone out there who can help me out, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
MinnesotaMom
