a travel agency took a picture of me during a vacation and the picture is now in a national AD. this was done without my permission. I never signed any photo release or was paid for the picture. Can i file a lawsuite against the Travel agency and what can i expect compensation wise.

Enjoy the free public relations press picture.
Don’t soil yourself and work your self into a tizzy like the petulant whiny child you are. Get furious and angrier because you feel used. What will happen is that you will ,borrow from the bank $ 15,000 to retain a lawyer, who will play you like cheap fiddle & you’ll get nothing.

The image on “tasters choice” coffee was taken during photo shoot for modeling. The model was paid for the photo shooting, but he didnt know that it was his image that became the company logo for twenty years. Once he found out he sued and won the trial because he didnt give permission to “tasters choice”. Sure you can!
