US COPYRIGHT LAWS:
U.S. Copyright Laws state that the images of a professional photographer are
considered to be "original works of art".  Those images are considered to be "Copyright
Protected" and you must get permission from the photographer to copy or publish.  In
other words, you purchased a copy of the "original work of art" (image), but you do not
own the right to reproduce the image.

COPYRIGHT:  You commission me to create the photographs ordered and you agree to pay for such services in accordance with the terms of purchase.  I reserve the right to use negatives and/or reproductions for display, publication, promotional or other purposes without compensation to you.  Photos displayed on this web site are for preview purposes only and remain property of the photographer, unless you purchase a photo disc with a copyright release. Then they are yours to do with as you see fit.  However I still own the right to use the photo's as I see fit.
You will be asked to sign a form requiring a release from me to have your photos retouched by anyone.

Notice: It is ILLEGAL to copy, print or reproduce these photos elsewhere
without my written permission and violators of this Federal Law are subject to
civil and criminal charges and prosecution!
