Navigating the relationship between a photographer and editor can be complex terrain. Without clear description of crucial aspects, you might find yourself facing unforeseen legal risks and liabilities. For instance, failure to specify usage rights and copyright ownership could lead to unauthorized use of your photos by the editor.

The Photo Editor Contract serves as a vital tool for photographers seeking to hire an editor, providing essential protection, clarifying expectations, and minimizing potential misunderstandings. It includes key clauses covering various aspects of the working relationship, such as:

  •  Description of services to be performed
  •  Payment schedule
  •  Delivery of product schedule
  •  Designation of the editor as an independent contractor
  •  Duration of the contractual relationship
  •  Image editing requirements
  •  Confidentiality provisions to safeguard private business information
  •  Copyright ownership and usage rights
  •  Portfolio usage permissions, and more.

FAQ

  • Why choose TheLawTog?

Headed by Rachel Brenke, TheLawTog is the only dedicated resource for photographers.  With practicing lawyers, business consultants, CPA, financial planners (and more!) you’ll get information with first-hand experience to help your photography business. 

  • Can I edit the contracts?

Yes! They come as .doc files so you can fill-in-the-blank, remove or add what you need. We provide options and headings to easily allow for editing.

  • Can I use these contracts if not in the US?

TheLawTog®’s contract forms are drafted on general American law-based contract principles and are applicable to many states.  Due to variations in law based on location and business policies, the contracts are editable and easily adaptable. If you are a photographer outside the US, the policies may be implemented for your business, but U.S. Federal Copyright laws and other legal theories may not apply.  For example, in the United States, unless otherwise contracted, the photographer retains copyright ownership of images. However, in other countries, the law may give the copyright ownership to the client and necessitate a provision for transfer.
