VINE WEB DESIGN GRAPHICS will not intentionally copy or reproduce any photograph or other document which is known to be protected by copyright. Copyright law can be complicated, but can be roughly summarized as follows:

Generally, whoever takes the photograph owns the copyright. As long as this individual was not a professional photographer, there shouldn't be any problems with permission. If the photograph is the work of a professional photographer or photographic studio, you can contact them and ask for written permission to copy it. Then we can go ahead with our restoration.

If you aren't able to contact the photographer, or do not know, the studio or professional, the general rule is that copyright lasts for the lifetime of the photographer plus 50 years.
