There is a great deal of misinformation out there on blogging websites who claim to offer “tips” for new bloggers. You even hear this misinformation, if you attend blogging workshops/seminars. Some blogging tip websites even provide readers a copy and paste version of a disclaimer. You “think” by posting this disclaimer you have all the protection you need. This is one of these urban blogging myths. So, let’s dispel the rumor and talk legal truth.
The truth is that every photograph at the moment of creation is subject to copyright protection. You should assume every photograph is still under copyright protection. This is true, even if the photographer does not include the ©. This includes photos you find via our friend Google. This includes snapshots of glossy fashion magazine pages. This includes content on Pinterest or Tumblr. This includes promotional photos of covers of books, album covers or film posters. Someone owns that material and only that person has the right to license the photos out for use.
