Surprise! You asked, we listened - After Hours is back for a summer session, and this one’s all about protecting your work. Whether you’re just starting out or have been in the game for years, understanding copyright and licensing is a must.

On July 29th, we’re hosting Copyright & License Law 101 for Photographers at our Don’s Photo location on 1839 Main Street from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM.


This time, we’re teaming up with Michael Duboff of Edwards Creative Law - a Canadian entertainment lawyer who gets creatives because he is one. With a background in music and film and deep roots in the local arts scene, Michael knows what it takes to protect your work and stay legally sound as a creative professional.


Expect a casual, informative evening where you’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of:

  • Why contracts are essential and what red flags to look for
  • What copyright really means for photographers
  • What licensing is, how it works, and why it matters


Whether you’re licensing work to clients or just want to feel more confident about your rights, this After Hours class is packed with practical advice that’s easy to understand (no legal speak overload here).


Space is limited, so be sure to register soon!
