Copyrights and Royalties


OK, if I know that I am going to use the pictures and I have my models sign a release, is there a possibility that they can come back and ask for royalties or something? I just want to cover all the bases. And does anyone have a release format that they recommend?

  A model release is your contract, and you can stipulate your terms and conditions. Just do a search on "model release" to get an idea of what is typically included in the agreement. But, normally, there is no involvement with the model past the signing of the agreement. In exchange for signing the agreement, it's customary for the model to be given a picture or small portfolio or CD of images, etc.
