Most photographers and creatives don’t think about protecting their work until something goes wrong. This evening is built to change that.

Potential topics covered include:

  • The difference between copyright and trademark, and how each applies to photographers

  • How to protect and defend copyright in your work

  • When registering your copyright makes sense, and when it doesn't

  • Protecting your business name and brand

  • Protecting creative ideas or concepts through trademark – can it be done?
