Re: Havings Your Weddings Featured In Blogs - Would you be okay with it?

@S_and_S

So my cousin had her wedding plastered all over blogs and as well as lavish dulhan but she was so upset because she never gave her photographer permission to do so. Not only that, her wedding was featured a few days later all over the photographers blog so it has been all over facebook and now I am seeing her pictures pop up around on these clothing peoples pages. Have had to do a bit of damage control by sending messages to those fb vendors, so far everyone has removed them.

But that got me wondering, would you be okay with your pictures being published online?? I am indifferent. Its a Yes and No for me. Mostly No.

I dont condone what the photographer did specially since she/he didnt have an agreement/contract form signed with the client, but at the same coin I’m sure her friends n family have pictures up on social media so why should the professionals suffer cus they r professionals.

Did she sign a agreement form? or a contract? If so it would have contained a model release which doesn’t require permission separately for blogs. Also blogs/social media is the digital portfolio these days . Most brides spend hours going through blogs/portfolios online to choose their vendors yet have an issue when it comes to their pictures being online.
