I agree with Peter - HOWEVER - with a few additional comments. Rizzoli Publishing is a huge publisher in Italy and around the world. That said, They should be asked questions regarding rights, contracts, payments and ownership of said photos. There should absolutely be a contract that states that usage is for one time only in Europe/NAmerica or where ever. There are standard payment scales and contracts for these things. If you have any questions about your rights as a photographer or an artist you should ask an attorney that is familiar with these sorts of contracts and international transactions. You can check Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts http://www.vlany.org/ I'm sure that much like the graphics industry there is probably a handbook of guidelines for this sort of thing.
Many references in a google search - they are connected to the Rizzoli Book store http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=rizzoli+publishing +italy&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 Best S On Feb 16, 2010, at 6:18 PM, [email protected] wrote: > I received this request through the Brooklyn Bird Club website from > Italy for photographs of Jamaica Bay Refuge.
