Amy Taylor Sues Photographer Over Alleged Unauthorized Sale of Vogue Portugal Photos

The California complaint says the Vogue Portugal shoot granted editorial use only with no consent for prints or a zine.

Overview

  • Amy Louise Taylor filed suit in U.S. District Court in California, alleging photographer Jamie Nelson marketed fine art prints and a zine from a Vogue Portugal shoot without permission.
  • The filing states Taylor posed under an agreement for exclusive editorial publication in the July 2025 issue, not for separate commercial exploitation.
  • Court documents describe a September 4 proposal by Nelson to sell selected images, a September 15 refusal by Taylor’s manager, and Taylor’s September 20 discovery of prints and a zine listed for sale.
  • The complaint alleges Nelson continues to display Taylor’s likeness on Instagram and Facebook in a way likely to cause confusion over endorsement.
  • Taylor seeks remedies for lost profits and damage to her reputation and brand, and reporters note Nelson has been contacted for comment as the case proceeds.
