Disaster and Recovery:
 
“STUCK IN MALI AGAIN” EDITION
As  a  full-time  freelance  photographer  based  in  Accra,  Ghana,  Nyani
Quarmyne is no stranger to adventure. In West Africa, there are few laws
that  are  widely  followed,  especially  when  it  comes  to  copyright  and


intellectual  property.  Most  of  the  time,  everything  works  out—but  not
always. Here’s how Nyani tells the story:
When I was just starting out, I shot a couple of small jobs for a Ghanaian
creative agency. Shortly thereafter I got a call from them asking if I could
do  an  urgent  shoot  for  a  new  client,  necessitating  travel  to  a  couple  of
countries in the region. The deadline was really tight; it was a get-the-call-
today-and-leave-in-the-morning  kind  of  thing,  and  even  the  details  of
exactly  where  we  would  be  going  remained  in  flux  until  the  last  minute.
Having shot for the agency before, they had seen and signed my contracts
previously, and I made the mistake of thinking they understood how I work
and the basis on which I was undertaking this job. So in the rush I omitted
to get the paperwork squared away, and off we went.
The shoot went really well, and I produced what I consider to be some
very strong work. All was well until we were on a rural road far from any
city or airport. While we were driving along, the client demanded copyright
of  the  images—not  part  of  the  deal  as  far  as  I  was  concerned—and
threatened to have me detained at a remote border in a politically unstable
nation unless I handed them over. Not wanting to sample the hospitality of
the local gendarmes, I conceded and lost some of the strongest images I had
shot  to  date.  I  learned  my  lesson,  though:  Next  time,  be  sure  to  get  the
paperwork done first.
