Photography Question 

Traci D. Brumley
 

Can I post sport shots without a release?


I was wondering if it is "ok" to put photos of sporting events (group and individual) on a web site, such as shutterfly.com, for people to later view and purchase? Do you have to have a "release" or anything of that nature?

  I do sports photography and also have a web site,in australia we have a "blue card" system,that says we are safe to shoot kids etc that we are not related to or employed by.I shoot kids rugby netball and soccer,providing your not selling to a magazine for publication,its not a real problem,but I would try to contact the club the child plays for and offer for sale the images o the parents of the child?youll be surprised.
