PORN - Art
I have always belived that my photography consists of art, as opposed to anything even vaguely pornographic, and have worked very hard to make sure that i dont cross that line. It was then, with some shock i discovered through an email of a friend, that one of my pictures is being used by someone as their image on an erotic web cam page. While I offer copyright permission for people to use photos on the web etc, I am going to need to clarify that I am not happy with photos being used on pay-erotic web sites, etc. How I word this i am really not sure. I really dont want to end up in a situation where I have to ok every use of a photo but it may be getting to that stage. Worse still in this particular photo another performer (with face obscured by a fan) is also shown. I will of course be contacting both performers in the photo but thought it was worth making a general comment that I AM NOT HAPPY to have my name associated with such sites.
Please note that this is not from any sence of prudishness, but that it "lowers the tone" of my brand, and that with my hopes to enters into full time church work, it really doesnt give a good impression.
