People keep stealing my SH*T! (and what to do about it)

Описание: As photographers, we unfortunately have the odd occasion when we have to deal with other people using our images without permission.

This is often very frustrating, especially if it’s by professional organisations who should know better (or, even worse, other photographers).

Luckily for me, this is something that often gets brought to my attention by Karl Taylor Education members who are familiar with my work, but when I set out to create this video, I was surprised by just how much of my work is being used without permission!

Here I explain how you can identify websites or organisations using your images, resources you can use to learn more about the copyright laws in your country as well as the different steps you can take to safeguard your images.
