Re: Photographing Stained Glass

By way of at least partial closure on the question regarding copyright of the designs here is an update. I emailed two major studios, Willet & Hauser and Lamb and I am pleased to say that both of their chief executives gave their blessings to photographs being published subject to due credit being given to their studios for the works. These are both studios which have produced relatively modern works which I have seen and photographed and I am pleased that they are taking what I think is a sensible and enlightened view. Of course this does not cover the entire spectrum but bearing in mind that I tend to specialise in older glass I do not envisage a huge exposure.

Glad to hear that......... both Don Samick and Crosby Willet are terrific people!

There are many liturgical installations where the churches have no idea who created the work. And many installations not even signed by the studios.

We even had an instance a few weeks ago on a tour where the church was unsure and even the major studios were there debating who created the work. It was wonderful to watch them all together at the installation.

Again I really enjoyed your site. And you need to try to contact the editor of the SGQ to add some information about your work. Or write an article for the magazine with your perspective. It might add some further insight to creating a web site with information on it.
