JPG Magazine: Photography is Not a Crime

Sun, March 26th, 2006 by your_waitress

The theme of web legends/photobloggers/publishers Heather Powazek Champ and Derek Powazek's latest JPG Magazine is "Photography is Not a Crime". Issue number 5 begins their second year of publication, and is now available for sale at Lulu. From JPG's website:

The theme, "Photography is Not a Crime," is a rallying cry. It's meant to remind everyone that amateur photographers are the documentarians of real life. We capture our world to help us understand it. We are not a threat.

The issue contains 31 photographer's takes and stories on the theme, NYC subway photography by Edmund Leveckis, Shane Lavalette's Family Portrait Project, an interview with attorney Bert Krages, and a special clip-out Photographer's Right Bust Card.

Our rights as photographers is a topic that is repeatedly being challenged in our everyday encounters and frequently discussed in the photoblogging community. There is currently another example of how relevant this theme is at the NYC Photobloggers website. Hopefully the ongoing discussion and tools such as the current JPG issue will help someone out there know what do to when their rights are challenged.

Thank you Heather, Derek, and all of the inspiring photographers in the issue for addressing this topic head on. Check out the preview at JPG Magazine, and remember that photography is NOT a crime!
