The amendment to the 11-year-old law which made it illegal for photographers to trespass, both physically and constructively, with the intention of photographing celebrities engaged in personal and familial activities in a “manner that is offensive to a reasonable person” – now allows plaintiffs to file suit against any media organization that sells, transmits or publishes an image knowing it was obtained through such illegal trespass.
Rudi Spiller, CEO of Germany’s Leica Camera AG, has a square jaw and stands as though rooted to the floor. His hair is closely cropped, and behind his rimless glasses his eyes are keen. In opening remarks at a recent press conference trumpeting three new
I’m editing my portfolio with the help of Sid Hastings, and in some sort of bizarre karmaic twist my jaw drops. Our portfolio edit stuns me, because for the first time in my career my portfolio is led with a photograph made on a point and shoot camera. And, I’m not ashamed of that…in fact I’m delighted.

“I doubt young Americans would pay for newspapers, no matter the quality,” she replied. “My generation is accustomed to free leisure activities. Many of us download music illegally, watch bootleg movies and read newspapers online because we like cheap entertainment. And why shouldn’t we, since real wages keep falling every decade?”
