Retouchers......
Twice I have had retouchers take my images after the model had posted them on her social media page, take them and retouch them as they saw fit...... I was LIVID....I'm sure there are plenty who operate professionally and understand copy right (photos are classified as intellectual property) but there are a number who think they can do as they please. Just as some photographers do not know if their photo has a product in it such as a Coke can or any number of other items it can not be published without consent from Coke. There was a photographer who published some images that had in them the art work of a artist.... That artist sued the photographer..... Copy right violation use to be $10,000 per infraction the last I knew. It's certainly more now. Copy right Coke or any car among other things and this is PUBLISHED not if it's just portfolio images.
