If you must add a 'copyright notice' (why?), add an edge/matte to your photo (black, white, or any other color) and put the copyright notice in that. But NOT in the image itself (unless you WANT to disfigure or hide it).


You own them and it is your right to make sure that as people see them they know who did them. Also in my case I have images on a myspace and facebook page I would hate for my clients to go and just get them all off of my pages when they didn't purchase them all. I would keep a backup set on a disk or something just in case the client wants to purchase them later you wouldn't want to give them one with your copyright all over it. I hope that this helps you out.
