Who owns the copyright to the photographs you take for us?
Stuart Bailey
I often get this question about the image copyright and thought of answering here so that it can be helpful for those who has the similar question.
I do what mentioned below but you can tweak it as per your requirement.
Copyright is always held by the photographer who took the images. This is industry standard.
So the copyright for the photographs I take for all my clients is held by myself, Stuart Bailey.
A licence and usage fee will be agreed (if applicable) for the final images.
This is where I license the photographs to the client so they have permission to use them in their selected media types, regions, and set time period.
Licence and terms of use will be agreed and set before hand and I will publish the usage information in the invoice to you as well.
I may use the photos on my own social media, website, marketing, and promotional materials unless the client explicitly requests me not to do so. This will first be agreed in the licence and terms of use we set up.

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).
Who owns the copyright of a picture taken with permission of someone?
The photographer owns the copyright of any photograph unless there is a written and signed agreement with a client that states otherwise. If the photographer is an employee of someone else and being paid for his employment, then the employer is legally the "author" and owns the copyright, under US law. It is quite possible, and often the case, that a person may own the only copy of a photograph but someone else owns the entire copyright but no copies.

How long do copyrights last for genealogy photos?
Copyright law and the duration of copyright, varies somewhat from country to country. International treaties set a duration of the life of the creator plus 50 years. In the US it is life plus 70 years. There are different terms for works made for hire - that is, by an employee of a firm. Copyright law applies to photographs as well as written works, regardless of the purpose or use of the item. Because copyright law has changed over the years, copyright status may be different for older photographs and for different countries at different times.
Are US federal words public domain?
Yes, under US copyright laws, creative works of authorship by officers or employees of the federal government have no copyright, making them public domain. However, not everything published by the US government was created by the federal government and other authors or publishers may retain copyright ownership. For example, an author could license the US to publish something or the US could contract to have some work created, where the independent contractor owns the copyright.
