External media photography and filming The media operate under their own code of practice. Photographs taken by the media are usually exempt from the Data Protection Act. Official school photographers own the photos they have taken, they will only be able to use these photos for the specific purposes that parents and/or students consented to at the time the photos were taken. If the photographer wishes to subsequently use photos for purposes not initially consented to, they will need new parental and/or student permission. Internal photography and filming 1.
