Hi everyone,

I’m a photographer from Belgium. I discovered one of my photos has been printed illegally and is on one of the walls in a cruise ship. It’s a major US company. I discovered this because a passenger recognized my work and sent me a photo of it.

Does anyone now what’s the best thing to do here?

Thanks!

    First, register the image with the US copyright office. A lawyer wont touch the case until you register it.

    Then pursue damages, if its just one image, as a print, the odds of you coming out with any money are not high, however, you can shame the cruise company via socials and they may come to terms if the embarrassment to them is high enough.
