The d***riding in Punch’s comments is insane lol

Both SZA and Punch should STFU and pay the man his money

Doubt it
The photos look good, he will get more exposure. Non celebrity model wouldn’t care about this

Sounds like they should’ve paid the guy.

What kind of f***ed up photo shoot has the photographer paying for the production in the first place

She looks good though. I get why she’s mad and it’s clearly not her fault her team didn’t handle things correctly, but at least the pictures are fire.

Photographer is in the wrong here

The photos are his property but since its still of SZA he needs a release form from her

Right but if it’s true that nothing was signed whatsoever, and he funded the whole shoot, I can see why he did it.

But who knows. A release is mandatory but so is a signed contract and payment.

its her likeness and he cant abuse that legally especially when he’s promoting his brand. An exception would be if she signed a contract ALLOWING him to use her likeness but even then she may retain the right to withhold them

um respect a woman’s choice to not have her body posted on the internet without her consent 🤷🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

He isn't funding a sza photoshoot to go back to shooting non celebs lol. If you followed him you would see.his ambitions and this will follow him

I get the photographers prospective, but I also understand SZA feeling violated by this. Tough situation all around.

Sounds like they tried to screw him so he got them back

They're both in the wrong. The photographer was probably too nice and afraid of losing the opportunity so he let her walk over him and paid for the entire thing while having nothing in writing or signed. Sza clearly didn't put in effort into making sure he got taken care of and probably just told someone on her team to deal with it and never checked up on it. He shouldn't have posted them, she should have put in more effort.

Shes so bad goddamn

She ain’t want them posted because she didn’t wanna argue with her ex 😂😂

I wonder if any of y’all’s moms or sisters got their photos and posted without consent would yall have the same energy

u can’t assume everyone will move with respect in business especially the entertainment business, gotta move better

Though I do think the photos are pretty bad. She looks great but they're incredibly derivative of early-mid 2000's pop star photography to the point where they just look lifeless and emotionless. I'm pretty sure every teen focused magazine in the checkout lines during those years were filled with photos that look just like this. Props to him though if he's getting that bag repackaging something that was mass produced 20 years ago

Photographer doing the lord’s work

why is this stupid argument always brought up lmao

she's not my sister or my mom so I can be objective and dont care

Photographer in the wrong 100%.

no one itt has the answer

a contract decides ownership. apparently nobody signed one

Photographer is within his writes legally and likely thought this would be good publicity. He's socially in the wrong and the publicity isn't good as a result. Not sure what he actually gained from this. Bad move.

Blame it all on her lazy ass team not handling things as they're supposed to
