This book provides an overview of the various ways to distribute your photos, specifying what is legal for each status. It also addresses the question of activities tolerated for a non-professional photographer, as well as the risks involved in exceeding these limits. Using practical and illustrated examples, Joëlle Verbrugge, a lawyer and author-photographer, details the limitations of each status and addresses the tax and accounting aspects. She offers a step-by-step explanation of the registration formalities for professional photographers, explains the consequences of the choices made at each stage of the process, and highlights their advantages and disadvantages.

Part of the book also addresses the issue of combining activities and offers guidance on setting prices for your photos. Other concepts, such as “original print” and “publisher’s contribution,” are also examined in detail. In short, this is a practical and concrete guide to help photographers make the right choices in the complex web of legal and administrative regulations.
