Who owns the photos?
This is a question that often comes up. The answer is the photographer always owns the photos, unless there is a contract that stipulates otherwise. Basically, if you hire a photographer to photograph your property and you pay for the service, that does not mean you own the photos, but you do have the right to use them for promoting your property.You do not have right to reassign them to a third party. Think of Spotify. Just because you pay to listen to the music does not mean you own the music. Here is a link that goes into more detail: Who Owns the Photos
