How to prove your images are yours when another photographer claims your work (& also cheats on payin’)

THE SCENE: Ryan Coogler speaks on stage at The Standard | Meatpacking District, NYC

The Behind

Let’s play a game of iSpy. I’m in this photo holding a camera, bottom righthand corner, right behind Ryan Coogler himself.

The shot I got

I love the smile & notice the 180 degree flipped angle.

Okay so now do you see me?

The other photographer took this photo, she owes like half of the photographers in the tri-state money so i’m going to credit her as that. Photo by the one who never pays the people she hires ;)

Just in case you dont see me.

Okay I mean I think Diageo paid

The “main” photographer like 5 Grand to shoot this event

and how much did I get paid?

Well THAT photographer scammed me as usual

but at least I now have a photo with

Mr. Wakanda… so I guess

it’s just priceless.
