If she didnt pay for the pictures, would she be in the same boat?

suspicion 1. she links to the "photographer" and even offers to set up other girls with the same photographer. hmmm.

If you paid the photographer for the pictures, the pictures should be yours. But, you dont have any documentation to that point, nor does the photographer have documentation to say that he doesnt own them.

Either case. Get something signed. Have a contract that states the photos are for your use only, that he has no right to them. Right now, all that you have as "proof" is whatever you paid him with (if you paid cash, you got nothing)
