I completely agree that if the photos are not taken by you then it should be credited…
That should avoid some weird situations where you think that these people are your family…
For stock photos I use when I can’t find what I’m looking for in mine (or if a designer I work with prefers non blurry photos) I always credit Unsplash and also the name of the photographer.
But for photos taken by a professional photographer for our family, I have the release forms and I don’t credit them here. At that point I own the photos. Am I doing this right? Should I be crediting the photographer? Some of them I don’t even remember the name of the person who took the photos…
