sample at will there is no copyright

Filed under: the shooting gallery — ABRAXAS @ 6:08 am

Dear Aryan
Please could you either remove/purhcase my images that are on your website.
These were e-mailed to Cathryn for perusal purposes only. She made an
enquiry about usage and that was the last I heard….
I quoted an exceptionally reasonable price to her.
We do all try and make a living in the arts!
Yours truly

hi suzy
i am confused by your mail
since you never asked my permission to take photographs of my body
i sincerely presumed that the very least you could do is allow me to use images of MY body on MY web site
i think it is only fair that we leave it at that
unless you are prepared to PAY ME for each image that you took of MY BODY
best wishes
aryan

Hi Aryan
I thought you might go somewhere like that with this… Actually I did ask permission.
You were on the floor when I asked to take permission of the show …
I don’t think it is fair that we leave it at that….
Best wishes
Suzy

Mr K - good day

oh my goodness i have an impending sense of war about to break out
she wants R50 a picture ?
she did ask permission to take pics in Grahamstown
she didn’t ask you personally… but i said sure
i recall you were under the blanket at the time

cathy
it’s outrageous
i am not going to buy images of myself???
it’s absurd
it is common courtesy for a photographer to allow the subject matter free access to the photos
i am prepared to litigate
she does NOT have MY permission to sell photos of me
no way!

    for shame! for shame!
    i just can’t believe someone would be so insecure about their work and standing in the world, as well as so very bitter..
