No... Copyright is a document and recognition stating that a certain device or method of doing something was originally created by you. It prevents others from stealing your idea and "copying" it. A copyright isn't a person. You can hire a lawyer to file one though if you are unable to do so yourself.
What else can I help you with?
Can you copyright an idea you designed while working for a company you quit?
Technically, you cannot copyright ANY "idea". Copyright only protects the creative work of authorship that describes the idea. As for employee relations, if you were hired for the purpose of creating things, then just about anything you create while employed would automatically be copyrighted by the employer as a "work made for hire". Attempting to register a copyright that you do not own would be a violation of federal laws. Similarly, if you were hired to invent things, your patent rights to any invention would naturally belong to your employer, even though your name would be on the patent. On the other hand, if your job was completely unrelated to your creative work, and you did not use any company time or resources to create it, you may have a good claim that the employer does not own the copyright or the invention.

How does Copyright Law affect use of photographs?
The person who snapped the photograph (or their employer, if they were hired to take photos) would automatically own the copyright. On certain "works made for hire" the client would be considered the author, but only if there were a written contract. Unless a person owns the copyright or has a license or statutory exemption, the use of any copyrighted photograph is restricted by federal laws of over 160 countries. You cannot generally copy, publish, distribute copies, make derivative works, upload/post or download copyrighted photographs without a license from the copyright owners. However, copyright on many photos has expired (e.g., anything published prior to 1923, published in the USA before 1963 without copyright renewal, etc) or never existed (e.g., works of the US government, works published prior to 1989 without proper copyright notice).
