If they take an image of my car and me in it, then if I wished to use that image on a forum to chat about it then I must have rights over that.
As I understand it from involvement in photography forums, no, you have no rights to your image in the UK.
Copyright in the negative or digital data is an automatic right of the author.

You need to check the contract you sign with a professional. If you fall out bigtime with him/her you might find you get no photos at all (albeit you might be entitled to compensation but the event itself will be gone with no visual record thereof - cue massive disapppointment).
