In today's fast-paced world, capturing stunning images is just one part of a photographer’s creative process and business. When photographers aren't behind the lens, they have many important copyright considerations to juggle surrounding their works. To mark World Photography Day in August, we held a webinar titled Photographers’ Rights: Navigating Copyright Realities. During the event, photographers learned how their works are protected by copyright, got practical tips for enforcing their rights against online infringement, and learned about the hot-topic copyright issues affecting photographers today, including the profound impact of AI on their craft. Our expert panel of speakers includes:

- Thomas Maddrey, Chief Legal Officer & Head of National Content and Education, American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP).
- Alicia Calzada, Deputy General Counsel for the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA); Media and First Amendment Attorney.
- David Trust, CEO, Professional Photographers of America (PPA)
- Rachel Kim, Vice President, Legal Policy & Copyright Counsel, Copyright Alliance (Moderator)
