Husband starts claiming wife’s wedding photography work as his own, insists he is part of the creative process by “supporting” her: ‘I didn’t build this career for someone else to take partial credit’

In creative fields, there's something really special about your work finally starting to get the recognition you've poured years of sweat, time, and money into. Whether you're a painter, designer, photographer, or writer, your portfolio becomes an extension of you. It's a record of every late night, every risk, every skill sharpened through repetition. So when someone else begins to blur the line between supporting your craft and absorbing credit for it, the situation can get uncomfortable fast. One wedding photographer found herself in exactly that spot when her boyfriend began telling people they were a "creative team," proudly showing off her portfolio as if it were a shared endeavor.

Sometimes things with creative duos can get pretty murky when it comes to determining who the final product belongs to. If I give my husband's script for film class constructive criticism and he completely follows all of my input, is it still just his? If I ask him to mix some green oil paint for me or what figure to draw in a certain spot in my artwork, is my art now partially made by him? But the guy in this story isn't even a photographer. He's just a sales rep that wants to take credit for his wife's work.
