There has been a growing trend over the course of many years now where photographers have been asked to sign contracts that contain predatory terms and conditions. Predatory terms and conditions in this article are any contract language that transfer your intellectual property to another party without fair compensation. In this article, several real-world examples are shown to educate you on what predatory language looks like.

Advice & website feedback

Submitted by NashvilleSam on Wed, 07/22/2009 - 5:43pm

I could really use some advice.  I would like to know what I'm doing wrong. It seems that I'm getting turned down for alot of things lately, and it's getting really frustrating.  Is the problem my website? Is it the photos?   I've tried and tried to get on with local publications here, and have had absolutely no luck.  I'm had a few photopass requests that have recently been rejected. I had figured that it was because I'm freelance.

Tony Luna has written a multi-part business series on Photo.net that discusses in detail the lifecycle stages of a freelance photography job. The link below takes you to the introduction where you will find links to the remainder of the series. Each part is presented as a stand-alone article. The entire series is a great read, whether you are new to photography or a seasoned pro.

Note: I'm in the process of getting a dedicated domain and removing the 'wix' ad, so if you can just pretend that's already done. The wix ad really doesn't detract at all from the website... it's just a required nuance of having a free website.

I appreciate any and all comments or suggestions. This seems like a pretty cool site.

I just noticed that the account registration screen doesn't allow you to set the time zone for your profile. Make sure you log into the site and fill in your profile details. Set the proper time zone too so post times/dates display correctly for you based on your locale.


Thanks!
