“But we thought it was fair use.”

That sentence can get photographers into some serious trouble.

Just because an image is being used for a business, education, social media, or some other seemingly harmless purpose doesn’t automatically make that use “fair.”

Fair use is a specific legal doctrine, not a blanket excuse for using someone else’s photography without permission.

In this clip from my conversation with attorney Wendy Neal, we talk about some of the common excuses clients make when they’ve used photography without properly licensing it.

If you’re a photographer, knowing your rights is just as important as knowing how to create great images.

Listen to the full episode of Beyond the Image for the complete conversation.

Most photographers don’t struggle because of creativity.
They struggle because they don’t fully control light.

On June 30th at The Hive Studios, I’m hosting:

The Complete Studio Lighting Workshop

A hands-on studio experience where you’ll learn how to build repeatable lighting setups for commercial, editorial, fitness, and personal branding portraits.

No theory overload. No watching from the sidelines.

You will shoot every setup.

We’re covering:
• One-light editorial setups
• Corporate and personal branding lighting
• Fitness and athletic portrait lighting
• High key and low key studio setups
• Color gel lighting for modern commercial looks
• Mixed lighting with strobes, LEDs, and ambient sources

If you’ve ever felt like your lighting works sometimes but not consistently, this is where that changes.

📍 The Hive Studios | Phoenix, AZ
📅 June 30th
🕠 5:30 PM start (Doors 5:00 PM)

Limited seats. Hands-on format.
