    Hello I do not know if the two brides were related. I have emailed both brides now to express my concerns. I had to word this carefully as I do not want to damage my relationship with them, but I don't want to ignore it either. It's a difficult one. The other tog has been friending all the...

    I shall certainly report back should anything happen. I have not spoken with my brides. It's a difficult one as I don't want to damage my relationship with them. Also it seems in one case at least that they knew she was doing this, when my contracts say I should be sole professional photographer

    I have reported her to the ASA for false advertising and put comments on facebook that we were the official photographers. Will see what happens.

    Once again I am not a troll and yes I have a website, but I'm not here to advertise. I do appreciate all the feedback though. I have contacted the other photographer but as yet have heard nothing.

    It's not a wind up or a fabrication at all. I do have a website, if I choose not to share it, that has nothing to do with me being false. It makes sense in this competitive industry to be unknown, to have nothing traced back to you. Especially if any legal action is planned. Thank you to the...

    Yes two separate weddings. I wasn't as aware of her at the first wedding compared to the second when she was much more in my way. I thought she was just an annoying guest/friend until these photographs appeared.

    Yes we have it in our contract. I noticed cameras, there are always cameras at weddings, what I meant was I was not aware there would be another 'wedding photographer' there. I assumed she was a guest who kept standing in front of us etc and I asked her to give us space. Now I see she has used...

    She was a guest and I think one of the brides at least knew she was taking photographs. I am angry that she is presenting herself inaccurately and passing our ideas off as her own. I've managed to get pictures removed by facebook in the past and will try again.

    yes we have a few poses that are unique to us in this local area at least, she's copied them exactly, in that she was standing behind us. ASA is a great idea, will mention that to her. Just trying to find the best way to word things.

    Gramps, I dont have a problem with guests taking photographs, thats fine as long as they dont get in my way too much, however this girl on the day WAS getting in my way and was told to leave us alone to get on with our work. We didnt' realise at the time she was a photographer. She's on her...

    Hi Would appreciate thoughts on this, its not really copyright theft but it has seriously peed me off. I photographed two weddings recently. One of the brides is a 'friend' via Facebook. I noticed today that she had been 'tagged' on Facebook by another photographer whom I had not heard of...

    Phil, that letter/email is great (as is the 'fixed' version :lol:) I'm continuing to ignore her. I suspect this isn't the end of it, so I'll let you all know if I hear anything more, after all, its useful experience/knowledge/laughs to share with fellow photographers!

    Thanks for all the additional advice, very useful and helpful. What I am doing is just ignoring her emails and if she wants to waste her money going to a lawyer she can! I just wanted to know people's thoughts and to see if anyone had had similar experiences. I really should have said that said...
