COPYRIGHT STATEMENT

Copyright is very simple. The photographer holds Federal Copyright and ownership to every photo he/she takes from the moment the image is captured in camera. When a customer hires a photographer for a session with their animal, the photographer is the legal and binding owner of every single photo taken of your animal- whether it is a private session or a horse show. When a customer selects an image for purchase, they are purchasing the *rights* or *lease* of the photograph. It does not mean the customer *owns* the image - ever. If the photograph is used for business, there is a strict contract on the image that states the term of the *lease* - where and how it can be used, and sometimes for only a specific time. These images cost more because they are used for a business where the animal will be marketed. More commonly, if the customer selects and image for 'personal use', there are still rules to this usage. These rules are not the same across the board with every photographer, and you as the customer should be aware of their rules before purchase to avoid any miscommunication or possible lawsuit for misuse. We would be happy to discuss this in further detail to anyone who is unclear on copyright. And would be happy to email a detailed statement on business vs. personal usage.

Removing images from the site, it's Facebook Page or anywhere else that Da Vinci Pictures has posted images is Copyright Infringement and is ILLEGAL. Unless you have purchased rights to use and post any image from us, we consider it to be theft and will take appropriate action. Respect our copyright...don't be a thief!
