Photography is Not a Crime
This site is meant to educate everyone about the rights and responsibilites of photographers

We hope to cut through the misinformation, confusion, hysteria and fear that surround the issue of photography in these times when many people are quick to limit freedoms and artistic expression in the name of secuity, privacy and protection of individuals and structures.

"In a post 9/11 age of paranoia and suspicion, public photography is increasingly seen as threatening, or mistaken as criminal...Amateur photographers are the documentarians of real life. We capture our world  to help us understand it. We are not a threat. " - JPG Magazine
