Can a newspaper use my photo in an article without my permission?

No. Generally speaking, when you take a photo you are the owner of the copyright in the photograph. The newspaper should seek your permission before using your work. This position changes in freelance photos, as the employer will own copyright in the photos. Please see our article for more information on the ownership of copyright for freelance photos.
