| What is EPUK ? |
EPUK is an email group for professional editorial photographers who want to talk business. We don't do techie stuff or in-crowd gossip. We don't talk cameras or computers. What we talk about are the nuts and bolts of being in business - like copyright, licensing, fees and insurance.

The Digital Economy Bill, what to charge for limited edition prints, the Retna takeover, what to quote for use on a book cover, and … who’s going to FOCUS?
