UK forced contract photographers to sign a new contract in January 2015, but the director of corporate communications told PDN that individual contract photographers could object to and renegotiate specific parts of the contract if they wanted to. <br /><br />“[They] will not want to assign and/or waive their rights and there is no obligation for them to do so – if they do not wish to do so, they may object and negotiate different terms with us in the usual way.” - Karen Myers, Time Inc. Director of Corporate Communications<br /><br />So if this was the case in the UK, I wonder if photographers like James Nachtwey, as you mentioned, will be able to renegotiate the contract on an individual basis. But of course, even if he does, no one else will ever know.MNUSAhttp://www.mosquitonetsusa.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553278593406733377.post-87587378891740322382015-11-11T21:48:03.829-05:002015-11-11T21:48:03.829-05:00Do we know if Jim Nachtwey has signed this contrac...Do we know if Jim Nachtwey has signed this contract as he is one of their top contributors.
