Description:

We all love photography but sometimes we wonder;

• “Can I take that photo?
• “Is it legal to take that image?”
• “Am I breaking any laws?”
• “Will I get into trouble?”
• “Is it morally or ethically right to take this image?”
• “Do I need a model release?”
• “What should I have in a model release?”
• “What Rights do I have as a photographer?”
• “How is my work protected?”

These and many more questions will be answered in the 1.5 hour presentation and open to questions afterwards.

About your instructor: Peter Gatt

I always wanted to have a career were I could be in nature all day. I first got a taste of Photography in High School. I enjoyed it so much; that I decided to go to Humber College to pursue it as a career. After working in the photographic retail field for many years, I have found many people asking me questions about photography and if I could help them with photography and help them improve their skills as well.

In 2000, I was asked to create and teach classes at the Henry’s School of Imaging. I thoroughly enjoyed teaching. In 2002, I started teaching night classes at Alexander Mackenzie High School. On April 27th 2006, I decide to start my own school, and the School of Photography was born.
