Where do these types of concert photos come from? I didn't think they were UFA Official photos because they don't have the copyright on them, but they're definitely professional. Are they sold at the concerts? Are they "official UFA but we're too lazy to stick the copyright thing on since we just took them yesterday" photos? Anybody know?
They're normally taken by fans with better equipment. Usually they'll stay at a concert a little longer than halfway (or until graduation ceremonies are over), then they leave and get the pictures done so they can sell them as soon as the concert ends around the grounds.

They are made by H!P staff, and then are fast developed and sold at the exit of the concerts so fans can take home shots done on that day. This same pics are later processed and the "Hello! Project" lettering added and sold as trading cards. I know because you can see the photographers placed at strategic points of the hall with their equipment and H!P IDs. It is almost impossible to enter the hall with something bigger than a cellphone unless you're staff.
Ummmm.....yes and no. They are made by H!P staff...

Yes.Are they sold right outside the concert venue? No. (Why would they do that?)Then who takes the unofficial ones? The wota. That's why they're called unofficial.
how many seats/tickets are sold per concert show on average? i know that they performed on alot of different size stages so the number varies. but just on average, how many people attended? around 10-20,000 or less?
has they ever played for bigger venues?
I was watching a Berryz Koubou concert the other night. When they sang Koi no Jubaku, the wotas say something after Risako, Momo, Miyabi and Kumai's lyrics. What are they saying to them?
I think that this all started with the song "Pittari Shitai X'mas" from Pucchimoni were there are background people in the music singing that. Although maybe it existed before.
