Re: Copyright Photography in Public Domain

[irismedia <irismedia@PRODIGY.NET>]

Group:

I am part of a re-enacting group in Oregon.  We are frequently photographed.

My question is about when a person comes in, takes pictures, and then sales
the photos.  What is the right of the people who were photographed?  There
is a person that says if anything is done out in public, then there is no
privacy rights to the people involved.

Personally, I have no problem if I am used, but I have great concerns when
my underage niece and nephew are the subjects.

I have not seen this covered in LM Net.  Thank you for your help.
