There is a site called Simply Classics which has hundreds, if not thousands, of your photos. I searched the Sharon Tate Gallery on said site, and found dozens of photos of Sharon Tate from your agency. Isn’t this a major copyright violation? I would think that your photographers, such as Hatami, would be extremely upset to see rheir work has been downloaded and plastered all over the internet. Sadly, the Sharon Tate Gallery is only one of HUNDREDS of celebrity galleries that this site boasts, including 830 photos alone of Audrey Hepburn. There’s Marilyn Monroe, Ava Gardner, etc, etc, etc…
Here is the URL to teh site I am referring to: http://www.simplyclassics.net/web.html
You may have to create a login name and password in order to view the galleries. But please investigate this as it is outright theft of photographers’ work!
