Yes
Does everyone put Copyright protection on their prints before giving to the client/customer? For example: (Copyright Protected Do Not copy).
If yes, do you buy pre printed paper or put your own print/label on?
 
Yes, I put a pre printed sticker on the back

"©Edward Moss photography. This photograph is protected under the copyright act 1998. Copying by any means or persons other than the copyright owner Edward Moss Photography is a breach of copyright. For further copies, telephone 077XXXXXX"
 
print my own labels with a design on - a4 sheet of labels from wilkos - then spent a while trying to line the buggers up, lol

looks good now though, and all saved so can rattle loads off
 
Lol Drew, I hate labels too but once you have template in place its fine. I started printing on back of Canon paper I use but nightmare as ink smudged everywhere!

The only thing that concerns me with labels is that they can peel it off but would probably damage their print.

To be honest I think people would copy anyway these days as most people have a scanner or oher ways to copy photos :(

nope, no point to it. people have home scanners and printers but then I rarely supply a print smaller than A3.

1988 ;)
 
Get a rubber stamp made up costs less than a tenner, but don't use an ink pad as the ink doesn't dry on the back of the photo paper, instead I use a high quality waterproof marker pen to ink the stamp. That cannot be got rid of.
 
Yep, sticker on the rear of prints that have been paid for, my watermark across the front of proofs and my Copyright details embedded in the meta data of the digital files just in case I provide proofs on disc.
