Releases
Hi Everyone. I know you need a release from a person to sell a photo of them but what about a persons property i.e. House, livestock, barn etc... Do I need their permission to take a picture of their property. Also what if I get their permission to take a landscape from a vantage point on their property? Should I give them a courtesy copy of the photo? Thanks Cheryl

To the best of my knowledge –albeit limited – you need a release to market any image of private property including a home, land, animals, etc. From the point of view as a farm owner and animal owner: when people come to my property and shoot images of my animals I always appreciate a copy of the photo. In turn, when I visit another person’s farm/home/business and make images I always offer them a copy of the final image.

You don't need permission to take photos from a public place (sidewalk, roadway) of property, animals or whatever, but you do need the release to use them.
