Question for the Pro wedding photographers
Ive been offered a gig as second shooter by a local wedding Pro, and Im flattered to have been given the opportunity This Pro however, has informed me that I would be required to sign a release giving her all rights to my images.
I can understand signing a provisional release, allowing the studio to sell the reprints of those images. But signing away all copyrights?? Is this common practice? By signing such a document, I wouldnt even be able to use the images in my own portfolio (if I understand the law correctly).
Your thoughts and comments are much appreciated.
