You need a consent approval to publish pictures on an open site of a recognisable person

not on a public street you dont.

Do you think celebrities approve of having their images published of them drunk and falling over etc? no of course not, its in a public place so they cant do anything.

Dr windows you have it all wrong, I have completed a course on Private investigating, you cannot TAKE a picture of a person without their consent.
to catch them out you have to take a picture of something nutural like a tree or house but they cannot be the main object in a photograph.
Papparazi can take pictures of celebs as this law doesnt include media, they are regulated by other sets of laws.
I had to know this as any photo that I took, had to hold up in court. any breaches in the law would of had the case thrown out.

He has more hair than me lol
Wish in a way I could still do it, but SIA brought out a license for PI

[Sapphire Window Cleaning]

I was declined a license because I had 1 CCJ at that time.
money was ok, but it was very very boring.

what if you are a independent photographer such as the paparazzi and your photo is sold or sent to a publishing house, newspaper or trade magazine?

[Sapphire Window Cleaning]

The pap are under media laws.

Just noticed this thread ... question to MB - do you mean it is an actionable offence to take and show photos without permission or do you mean that the photos would not stand up in court to prove a case?

BTW, legalities aside I reckon that if you use "health and safety" as one of your expressed reasons to use wfp and then if you're dumb enough to stand on your van in broad daylight with said pole then you deserve all you get coming to you!

[Sapphire Window Cleaning]

It is an offence to take a picture with the person in question being the main object in the photograph.
If they object to it, then that picture should be destroyed.
If that picture is then published the person in the photograph can take legal action.
A friend of mine was visited by the Police about some pictures he had taken, they came round and demanded the memory card from his camera, checked it on a laptop then confiscated the memory card as the person in question was the main object in the photograph.

[Sapphire Window Cleaning]

It wouldnt stand up in court because it is in breach of the law.

[ronnie paton]

If i was this guy i would seek legal advice against you.
You need a consent approval to publish pictures on an open site of a recognisable person,what gives you the right to trash his reputation because of his method of doing this job?
Sad person.

no you dont

we have been here before, i know of a van owner who had a pic taken of his van at a show and it was then used on a major billboard advert

nothing he could do

Matt if some one did a advertising board with my van and company logo on it i would be over the moon but i can say if i was nt this would be breaking some kind of law without doubt!!

[ronnie paton]

and standing on a van is a very stupid thing to do but if i was  at a jpob and my 60ft was slightly short would i consider it? well it would cross my mind

[ian1972]

  just chill guys

[LWC]

Who cares...who can say they havnt done something stupid or a little dangerous...and as for standing on roof of van thats pretty low danger in my opinion.

If he was using a for example a 24ft pole and the window was just out of reach for one job, sod spending £200 on a 30ft pole or more, ill stand on my van thanks for free.

If he was needing to get that high all the time then go get a new pole, but if its for one job like i say WHO CARES...you lot need to get a life sometimes, he didnt kill anyone, give the guy a break.

[Sapphire Window Cleaning]

Ronnie it is quite a complex issue with regards photos etc.
if it was posted on a media bill board then it will fall into the media laws regarding photo's.
LWC I wasn't commenting on the guy standing on his van, I was commenting on the fact that one of the general public took a photo of this guy without his consent and he objects to it, if he injures himself by standing on his van he will only have himself to blame.
We have all done things that fall outside health and safety.

[ian1972]

so whats he objecting to having his photo took standing on the van or the fact that he could look a bit daft stood on his van,think this has bin blown way out of proportion,its not like some1s gone in his house and peed on his kids is it

Huh!

[R W C]

Personally I cant understand how someone can have all that kit in there nice new van and not afford a pole to reach that sort of window, you wouldnt see me standing on a roof using a pole as it only takes a little step back or trip on the roof bar, and thats your wc business gone bye bye, £200 you say LWC for a pole isnt really much is it when we all no how long it takes to earn that, get the right tools for the job I say. A 30ft would probs cost less then his sign writting.
