ChrisC Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I have looked at the threads and some of this has been covered, but as a January forum newbie, I have a question about releases, I am aware of the difference between RF & RM, but I have some images of a model, that I think could sell with model release, but haven't asked them to sign the release. I know model releases are partly about people suing you in the future, amongst other things, but I wondered if you have a model release will that make the image more saleable in monetary terms in general? Or is it only more valuable, If it is used in a advert of some description, or am I wrong to think that? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSnapper Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 even in editorial there are some uses where having a release of a model can lead to more sales - sensitive issues etc. Yes, very much the case. Especially true if the images are of minors. Having a MR is often a dealmaker km Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Quist Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 You should perhaps use a neutral model release form not mentioning any agency in words, but accepted by all. You never know what the future brings for your images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisC Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 Thanks Everyone! Good advice from you all, I'll have to start doing that, my only other thought was some people then might ask for a fee? Does anyone do this? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks For these everyday images could be symbolic to fulfil the promise in the wording of the release form. Everything ranging from a drink, a coffee, a copy of one of the images, etc. - up to an agreed amount for posing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
