I just had some lovely professional photos done, which are stunning. I told the photographer beforehand exactly what they were going to be used for, i.e. promoting my adult profiles, we used ways of lighting/ posing and editing etc to deliberatly disguise me, or shade out identifiable features etc, because of privacy. I paid £280 and got 21 images on disk. I've only used 2 so far and was planning to rotate them with the others over time. I wasn't planning on using those pics anywhere else, even facebook/ show to friends etc. Anyway, tog asks me if he can use a few of my images on his facebook and website as promotion, and I say sure, but please not any with my face in, or the ones i paid for, as i don't want them showing up in google similar images, and obviously i don't wan't the same ones i'm using on say aw, showing up on someone's website, where i could be easily identified (i'm also all over this tog's website from previous tfp shoots i've done with him). I answered him about using my pics yesterday, and to be fair he could have done it before he saw my answer, but i just looked and he's got 8 of the 21 pics i paid for up on his site, and most with my face in
?
I don't know why i feel sad about this rather than angry, but i do. I've had to take my main camsite profile pic down because that's one of the ones he's got up there, and that was my fave pic of all
I know generally togs have rights over their own work, but what if i've paid for them? Can he just use what he likes? It basically means I've wasted my money if so because i can't use those pics now. I'm very careful about face pics and what i allow to end up in google/ website cache's. I feel so dumb not anticipating this could happen beforehand.. i assumed since we'd talked so thoroughly about privacy, and creative ways to disguise me that it would be obvious i wouldn't want him using such pics. I'm not naked in any of them btw, just boudoir stuff.

and worse still, they don't listen !


That's just the sort of thing I needed to know in case I speak to him tomorrow and he does decide to be arsey about it. I'm pissed that he used those specific images already, either without waiting for my answer, or just plain going against me if he already read it. He also put one up where I am just covering my nipples (only shows waist up), does that count as adult?
