Please do not steal my images

A word about Copyright:
The Federal Copyright Law protects copyright. It is unlawful to copy or scan any images without permission of the photographer. Even though the pictures may be of you or your child, the photographer still owns the copyright to the image.


This is in the portrait agreement everyone signs in order to do a portrait session. By stealing images you are doing something illegal and it hurts us all.

Stealing includes right clicking and saving images, printscreening them from slideshows and ESPECIALLY altering them to remove watermarking. CDs are available for purchase for $25. and are web sized images with mazyphotography.com stamped on the bottom of the image. Saving them from slideshows and blogs is not necessary.


Thank You!
Jennifer
