Legal Question in Entertainment Law in California
public photography / sale
If I have taken pictures of people in
public, what are the laws regarding
those images?
Ideally and to the point: if I take a
picture of someone, can I then offer
to sell them that picture, i.e. via
internet? (like they do with athletes
at marathons, families at theme
parks, etc.)

Re: public photography / sale
Selling it to the person depicted in the photo IS legal. Selling it to others is probably not. (see my response to the other posting of the same questions)
