Next, let's answer what it means to send all the wedding photos and negatives. Is it legal not to distribute wedding negatives?

Wedding photos refer to all the wedding photos taken by photographers, all of which are original pictures without careful revision. Sending all the negatives means sending all the photos taken during the wedding photography to the customers without modification. Customers will receive as many negatives as they take photos.

It is illegal for a photo studio not to give the negative to customers after taking wedding photos. According to the relevant provisions of China's Consumer Protection Law, the operators in the photography industry should hand over all the photo materials in the shooting process to consumers after providing services for taking wedding photos, because the ownership of wedding film belongs to customers, and the transfer of film should not be charged extra.

It is legal to give the negative of wedding photos to customers. If the studio is unwilling to give the film to consumers or the film needs extra fees, it should raise legal weapons to safeguard its legitimate rights and interests.
