I received a question from FlashedBySanele on instagram about who owns the rights to the photo and who owns the usage right to the photo. Questions: Since RSA laws stipulate clients own usage copyright, how does it unfold if my t's & c's stipulate the contrary to the copyright laws - I own right to usage and if images are used for ad campaigns and monetary use I am entitled to compensation unless discussed. The answer is yes you are entitled to compensation however did you give your client permission for commercial usage? Listen to the podcast for the rest of the answer.
