Tomas Took a Number of Wedding Photos at Maura's Wedding

Question 19

Multiple Choice

Tomas took a number of wedding photos at Maura's wedding. He was paid as the photographer. On all of the photographs, he appropriately noted in the bottom right-hand corner information showing that he was claiming copyright protection. Maura came to see Tomas three years after the initial photographs were taken and requested that he grant her permission to run off as many copies as she wanted at the local photo shop from the pictures that she initially purchased. The photo shop had refused to reproduce the photographs without his permission. When he refused to give her permission to do so, Maura started a heated argument. She told Tomas that photographs are not entitled to copyright protection. She also told him that even if he was correct that there was some copyright protection, it only lasted for two years and that, in any event, damages for copyright infringement are unavailable.
-If Tomas decides to register the photographs for copyright protection, how would he go about doing so?


A) He would register by filing a form with the Register of Copyright and providing two copies of the copyrighted materials to the Library of Congress.
B) He only has to register by filing a form with the Register of Copyright.
C) He only has to provide two copies of the copyrighted materials to the Library of Congress.
D) He would register by affixing the appropriate symbol at the bottom of the photograph followed by the first date of publication and his name.
E) He would register by filing notice with the Copyright Protection Office.
