A prayer for the music industry.
This back-stabbing, cash-grabbing control game needs to change. This is our cause. To make music accessible again to lower socio economic artists & to expose scams.

REC006 - SACRIFCE AT ZANZIBAR

10/06/2025

Introduction
Photographers are essential to a band’s image and branding; from album covers to social media content, great photos help define a band’s identity. But unfortunately, not all photographers play fair. Many emerging and established artists have faced scams and shady business tactics that cost them money, time, & peace of mind. Here are some common tactics the naughty ones will use:

Charging for Usage Rights After the Shoot
Some photographers insist you pay extra for rights to use your own photos, even after paying for the shoot. This can feel like being held hostage for content you commissioned.

Unclear or Nonexistent Contracts
Artists often get into agreements without clear contracts, leaving them vulnerable to unexpected fees, limitations on usage, or disputes over who owns the images.

Charging for Resharing or Tagging
There are cases where photographers demand payment if you repost or share photos they took; even if it’s on your own band’s social media. This kind of control can stunt your ability to promote yourself.

Low Quality or Rushed Work
Some photographers deliver subpar images or rush shoots, yet charge premium prices or refuse refunds.

Overpriced Packages with Hidden Fees
Ambiguous pricing can lead to bands paying way more than expected, often for “extras” they didn’t realize were optional.

Conclusion
Photographers can be valuable creative partners; but knowing how to spot red flags and demand fair treatment helps artists protect their hard-earned money and their image. The right photographer will elevate your brand without trying to trap you in unfair deals.
