Photography and the Law – June 14, 2010
For all the street photographers out there who fear the ever-extending long arm of the law, it’s time to read up on recent developments regarding cameras and cops:
- The British Journal of Photography: Photography under threat: The shooting party’s over
- Gizmodo: Are Cameras the New Guns?
- The Times: Home Office admits to illegal use of Section 44 powers
It seems to be getting more and more difficult to remember what you’re allowed photograph, so perhaps it’s time to brush up on your photographer’s rights: UK version and US version.
Darby Sawchuk is a Canadian-born photographer who currently resides in Manchester, England. He has travelled to over 40 countries and is always adding more to the list. He creates stock for multiple agencies and is available for assignments.
