The Package

Don't take chances with your wedding photography. Make sure you hire a photographer who knows what he's doing - or better yet, hire two.
b
igirishgit.com can despatch two highly competent and experienced photographers who will cover every aspect of your big day.

What you will get -

  • professional photographic coverage of your most important day
  • three copies of your wedding-day photos on CD or DVD-ROM
  • a CD containing photos "for your eyes only" - if appropriate
  • complete and unconditional copyright ownership of all your photos
  • digital post production and manipulation of your photos to bring out their best
  • a selection of your photos on this web site (at right) within 24 hours

What you won't get as standard, are hard-copy prints or an album - thus saving you heaps of money on 'traditional' wedding photography - but we can discuss printing options if you wish.

However, with complete and unconditional ownership of your own images, you can print as many photos as you like, as often as you like and use them in any forum or format you like without paying any additional royalty or fee to the photographer. Compare this to the many other photographers who retain ownership and control of your negatives and charge you ever-mounting professional fees to get extra prints made.

Copyright Conditions

Quite simply - wedding clients of bigirishgit.com retain complete and unconditional copyright ownership of their own wedding photographs. They may copy the CD or DVD-ROM, print images or transmit files electronically as often as desired*.

What the law says...

• if the photographs were taken for “private or domestic purposes” (such as family portraits, or wedding
photographs), the first owner of copyright in them is the client, unless the photographer and client agree
otherwise.

Who owns the negatives?

Ownership of a physical negative, transparency or CD-ROM is determined by general property law and not copyright law. The owner of a negative is usually the person who paid for the film on which the negative image appears. Ownership of copyright in the photographs is separate from the ownership of physical items, such as the prints, negatives or digital files. Your agreement with the client should cover these issues.
If the client owns copyright in the photographs, he or she may make copies from prints in his or her possession. A photographer may own negatives but this does not entitle him or her to make further prints without the copyright owner’s consent.

Australian Copyright Council Information Sheet G11 Photographers and copyright

* Not all photographs taken on the day are handed over to the client. The photographer retains the right to delete or otherwise destroy any image deemed to be of poor quality, technically or artistically imperfect, or so closely similar to another photo as to be deemed essentially identical. Clients must accept that aproximately 20 per cent of all photos taken will be so deleted or destroyed, for one reason or another and will not be delivered.
