I don’t think that would bother me at all. Pics of people, yes. Objects, no matter how difficult it was to ‘get’ them? No. In fact I’d be a little flattered that she wanted to show them to her friend. That said, and I say this in the nicest way possible, I tend to be more laid back than you present yourself on this forum so YMMV. I had to look up that abbreviation because I've never seen it before. I tried to figure it out myself before looking it up but all I came up with was You Make Me Vomit. which I don't think can be said in a nice way Just sharing the laugh I had about that

I wouldn't mind. I don't think the teacher intended to post the photos as her own. I think she was just determined to find a way to share them with her friend.

I’m surprised that you were allowed to photograph the exhibit.

In regards to the above, thought most museums restricted photography of special exhibits, only allowing photos of their regular collections? Has this changed?

It’s weird that she didn’t ask. Or just privately shared the photos with her friend instead of posting them on her wall. Honestly—she sounds a little oblivious, that’s all. Is she older?

This was my initial thought too so I Googled it, and yes, it is still very much a thing. They limit or restrict photography so people are forced to buy the stuff they’re selling in the gift shop.

I’ve visited 19 major art museums this year and only 1 disallowed photography of any kind. The rest openly allowed cameras and phones, some stipulated no flash, and many encouraged the use of certain hashtags when sharing photos on social media. It was eye-opening and refreshing!

I would be pissed off. They’re MY pictures. Don’t fricking steal my pictures and then post them to your page. And if you’re going to anyways, have the decency to credit me.
I had a friend do this. She and her husband came to stay with us, and we took them all over DC and I took oodles of pictures. She stole all of my Smithsonian photos of items and popped them up onto her page. I took all of my photos down and watermarked them with my name.

Honestly, I'd probably be a little annoyed, but not upset or anything. I had a place of business once take photos from my page and share them and felt pretty annoyed at them. But I put them on there, so it was on me. Yeah that’s theft. They’re using your image for their marketing purposes and financial gain without compensating you or even having the decency to get permission and/or properly credit you.

I can't imagine sharing an event/experience with a family member or friend and not being willing to share my pictures of the event/experience with them. In fact, I freely share such pictures. I assume that people set their profile to private to protect their personal lives. I don't consider pictures of public things to be part of their personal life. Sharing pics containing family and friends, a person's home, or their private space without their approval is not OK.

It would have been nice if she had asked first, especially since she must have noticed you had security restrictions. She did not share your family photos. Sharing the art would be okay with me....

And if you’re going to anyways, have the decency to credit me. posts them herself on her wall, and says “Mary, these are the pics I wanted you to see.” Based on the OPs explanation it sounds like she had talked to her friend/coworker about this pictures, tried to share and tag the usual way and finally resorted to copy and paste on her own wall. Because of the way she said "wanted you to see" it sounds like she wasn't taking any credit for the pictures and already explained who/where they came from.
