General Stock Discussion / Fake model release
« on: January 17, 2018, 16:55 »
Hello!
I found my photos on shutterstock sold by photographer. 27 photos. He made that photos with me like a model, but never told that he is selling them. And I did not know that he is selling them. I never agreed he to do that. My face is used there, however, I never sign any model release with him. So that means he is selling my photos without my permission and without model release signed by a model (me).
How it is possible to solve that problem? Because I am against that he is selling my photos without my permission which I never gave. I would like he delete my photos from stock and do not sell them, and be punished from stock for selling photos with fake release.
I already wrote a letter to shutterstock, they will investigate. But now he deleted all the photos. What can I do? And what usually happens in that cases?
