Taylor Swift Is Being Accused Of Having "Double Standards" By A Photographer

Freelance photographer Jason Sheldon has accused the singer of double standards for allegedly insisting that photojournalists covering her live shows sign over the ownership of images to her company.

Taylor Swift's complaint this week about Apple Music not giving artists a fair deal forced a climbdown – but she exploits content too, according to a photographer.

In an open letter on his blog, which was published on Monday and has been shared more than 20,000 times, Sheldon said he was supportive of Swift's complaint but took issue with a "concert photo authorisation form" given to photographers before her shows by Firefly Entertainment, a company that manages Swift's image rights.

The contract says photos may only be used by publication on a "one-time only basis" – meaning photographers can't make money from selling the pictures in the future.
