Taylor Swift has got bad blood with a British photographer.

Freelance photographer Jason Sheldon wrote a response to Swift's much-lauded letter to Apple, accusing her of artistic double standards.

While Swift lambasted Apple Music for not paying artists during a free three-month trial — a policy Apple quickly changed — Sheldon says the singer is guilty of doing something similar to concert photographers.

In his response, Sheldon shares a contract he had to sign when photographing Swift's March 2011 show at the LG Arena in Birmingham, England, which said, "Photographs may be used on a one-time only basis for news or information purposes," and that Swift's management company will have "perpetual, worldwide right to use" of the photos.

"I can't use it in my portfolio, feature it on my website and even the original newspaper couldn't reuse it," Sheldon told the BBC.

Not being able to repurpose the photos in any way means Sheldon has "incurred expenses to work, which I can’t recover," according to his response. "Therefore preventing me from licensing my photos to more than one publication, or even (as later versions of this contract stipulate) preventing me from using the images ... while they can use them without licensing the usage is highly unfair and unjustified."

Swift's demands are not unusual of a performer, especially one at her level of fame. After the 2013 Super Bowl, photos that were deemed "unflattering" of Beyoncé were allegedly removed from Getty. It's part of the artist's way to establish control over the use of some of their images.

A spokesperson for Swift responded to Sheldon in a statement.

"The standard photography agreement has been misrepresented in that it clearly states that any photographer shooting The 1989 World Tour has the opportunity for further use of said photographs with management's approval," the spokesperson said. "Another distinct misrepresentation is the claim that the copyright of the photographs will be with anyone other than the photographer — this agreement does not transfer copyright away from the photographer."

"Every artist has the right to, and should, protect the use of their name and likeness."
