Thanks PTravel,
I figured legally that was the case, now in your experience as a lawyer in
this field, have they ever sued
a small time video guy doing weddings?
Just curious how concerned i should be. :)
I mean even if I took steps to be careful, the day of the event it's not
like i could just yell "Cut" stop the wedding,
that sound isn't approved and I'm not filming this any longer, lol I'd be
sued for breach of contract and ruining the event, no?
Thanks,
AnthonyR.
