Would this bother you? Not getting permission for photos

Oh man, that is not ok on her part. Maybe she doesn’t know any better, so I would probably notify her, but it wouldn’t hurt to notify the actual original bloggers as well.
If she had permission she absolutely should have included that info with each recipe, I can’t imagine the bloggers are ok that she didn’t include their info though.

Recipes cannot be copywritten, but unless those images are listed as free content, she's playing with fire.

Does she refer to them at all, anywhere? Even in the back? Gah I'd be annoyed to buy a paperback version of Pinterest.

Don’t ask her about it, she knows what she did. Point this out to the other bloggers, that this woman is making money off their recipes and photos.

That would really bug me. It bugs me when I search for a Barefoot Contessa recipe and get directed to a blogger making a BC recipe, but at least they are giving her credit. And they are taking photos of what they made, not including Ina's photos.

I agree with annabella, notifying the original blogger is the way I'd deal with this. They can contact the IGer you bought the program from if they want to pursue it.

Guessing because she didn't even make those recipes. She's a thief.

That is not ok. I wouldn't notify her, she knows what she did. While the recipes aren't subject to copyright laws the photographs are and I highly doubt she bought a license to use the images from each blogger they originally came from. I'd contact the original owners of the photos and quite possibly return the cook book. I wouldn't feel right about contributing to her making money off other people's work.

Is it possible it’s the other way around? That these bloggers have taken her recipes? I see this so much on sites, and they give a tiny line of credit where the recipes came from but the bloggers appear to be presenting them as their own.

I’ve been following this shit show for awhile now and I’m shocked at how Brittany still refuses to really take ownership for what she did...her apology video was weak at best and she’s so full of crap. I know a few people who lost so much money from her and it sucks because they’ll never see it back. She has offered *some* people a 20% refund of whatever they paid but they’re required to sign a NDA. 

As for mom situation I don’t think it’s right..especially since she didn’t give credit to these other people on her blog. I wouldn’t be giving any more money to her that’s for sure. 

Not ok. I mean it would be the same if someone took Ali Edwards project photos and class PDFs and packaged them up for a class and sold it. She’s stolen the content from someone. And I would say something to someone because who knows how much money she’s taking in off someone else’s content.

This is wrong and i bet some of those bloggers would be upset.  Photos are property of the person who took them and are copyrighted.  Recipes may not be copyrighted but pictures are and she should not be using others work without permission and giving credit.  When you don't give credit it would be assumed that you are the creator of the content.  She is  financially benefiting from the work of others.  

I would bet she doesn't know what she is doing is wrong.  On a local wedding facebook page a girl started advertising to make macrame items for weddings and decoration.  She posted several pictures and I knew I had seen them before.  She had lifted them from pinterest.  I privately messaged her that she shouldn't be using pictures of other peoples work as her own.  We went back and forth quite a bit.  It was a hard concept for her to understand.  For a lot of people if it's on the internet and all I have to do is right click to save it, then it's ok. 

For the posters that are referring to the copyrights of the photos. Yes, photos are copyrighted but this woman isn't making money from the photographs, she's making money from her advice on how to eat clean. There's a difference. Now if she was making framed pictures or selling those photos so you can decorate your kitchen wall with them  then she would be breaking copyright laws as the item she was selling would be useless without the photos. The photos would then be an integral part of what she is selling.Provided those photo had copyright protection and not from a free to use site.

Copyright laws are there so that others can't gain financially by someone else's work. She gains financially from her advice on clean eating and not by the photos. She would still make money whether she used photos or not of the recipes.No one is buying her clean eating plan just for the photos.

This is partially true and partially false. The creator of the photo owns the copyright unless expressly states otherwise. Fair use of photos would be for commentary, education, criticism, research, parody, or other work that comments upon or adds to the original work itself. In this case the recipe compiler is treading on I think a rather thin line. If the photos are being reproduced for teaching this is fair use. If they are being used for selling a cookbook this is infringement. It is my opinion that because she is making money from her program it would tend to be the latter case, that she is using copyrighted images in a commercial fashion and in my estimation the compilation of the recipes is not transformative enough to be an exception to copyright but I’m a layperson and not a lawyer. It wouldn’t pass the smell test in my classroom.
