Photographs in the studio

When they get married, they will go to the studio to take wedding photos. Photo studios often take more photos for prospective couples to choose from. If the prospective couple wants to choose the remaining photos, they have to buy them separately. So do these wedding photography works belong to the studio or the prospective couple? Next, Bajie Intellectual Property takes you to know the relevant knowledge. The wedding photos taken by the studio and the photographic works taken by the studio are protected by the copyright law, but the copyright ownership of the photographic works should be considered according to the specific circumstances. The copyright of the works taken by the studio belongs to 1, and the copyright of the photos taken by the studio belongs to. If there is a contract between the filming parties, the ownership of copyright shall be determined according to the contract, and the contract shall specify who owns the copyright and who is the copyright owner. 2. If there is no contract between two photographers, or the signed contract does not stipulate the ownership of the copyright of photographic works, according to the law, it will be presumed that the copyright of photographic works belongs to the studio. If others want to use photos, they must get permission from the photo studio in advance. However, it should be noted that although the photo studio has copyright on the photos, it does not mean that the photos can be used casually. Because the photo also involves the portrait right of the person being photographed, it can only be used for business with the permission of the portrait right holder, otherwise the portrait right holder of the photo can pursue the tort liability of the photo studio. It can be seen that the photos taken by the studio first depend on whether the two parties have signed a contract, so how to write this contract?
