Do I Get The Print Rights To My Boston Wedding Photos?
“If you are our Boston wedding photographer, do I get the print rights to the photos?”
This is the most frequently asked question during a meeting. The quick answer is “Yes.” After the wedding you’ll receive the high-res files edited photos with no watermarks.
During the wedding I’ll take over 4,000 photos. When I get home I'll back everything up and start to pick the best photos to edit for you. I’ll spend the next few weeks color correcting and editing the photos. Once all of the post production is completed, I'll give you the high resolution photos so you can print them on your own time.
The way I deliver them is with a simple download link. The service that I use to send them is a photo storage company called Pic-Time. You can download all of your photos with just a few clicks. Once they are downloaded, you can print them, share them on social media, and share them with your friends and family.
In addition to the download links, I will send you an official document stating that you have the print rights to the photos. This is helpful for when you go to print your wedding photos. Many labs won’t allow you to print your photos without this. The reason being is there are copyright laws in place to protect people from stealing photos and printing them.
The labs know that you need permission from your wedding photographer, so I make it easy for you to print out a document which I've signed stating that you have the right to print your photos.
