The Legal Bit

Now, we all know you are not going to read this but it is here anyway so I can patronise you later on for not reading it.

All my work is covered by the Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988.

Put very simply, that means that I own copyright on all my work automatically. There is no need for a model release.

It is an offence for anyone other than me to use any image I sell you for purposes other than those agreed or to get someone else to print it for you. Trading Standards officers treat that as theft.

I reserve the right to use my work for self promotion but will not publish commissioned work otherwise than for self promotion without your permission.

I will not use any work to defame you.

Models featured on this site are of legal age to do whatever they are doing.

I am not stupid, despite appearances to the contrary, and will happily negotiate a usage license for any image that is available for further use. That is, I will charge a SENSIBLE fee and not try to rip you off.

Any unauthorised useage discovered will be invoiced for DOUBLE my usual fee for licensed usage. Non-payment will result in court action to recover the fee plus all costs.

Talk to me, I am nice really and it will be a lot cheaper!
