The photographer owns the copyright, not you, unless you get it agreed upon. Typically, the cost for all rights / exclusivity for a photo increases too. The type of Usage for a photograph is just one of many considerations a photographer makes when pricing photography. re: One last thought: get a release giving you all rights.

I guess I was just worried that some readers might think it's a bit too much money to spend. Even if you cut your own hair, it makes sense to learn how to do it properly and pick the right style, doesn't it? :) Adrien – I agree completely.

His advice and experience really helped. Sue – it’s a very nice picture too! :) I hate having my picture taken too and my photographer had his work cut out to help me relax into it.

(The bad news for me is I lost a bunch of weight and it doesn't look like me any more, but I guess that's a problem I can cope with!)

(Actually, I haven't seen either you or John Malkovich in a room on your own either! :) ) The rights release is a very good point. Thanks!

One last thought: get a release giving you all rights. The photographer owns the copyright, not you, unless you get it agreed upon. actually, John Malkovich is actually me.
