ORIGINAL: StrictTies popeye1250, if you are paying a model $50 an hour & $300 for the shoot, you shouldn't have to release full shared rights to the photos after. That information is completely wrong as you are hiring the model for their services & paying them for the work. The photos produced from your paying model shoot would be entirely yours unless you did decide to grant the model use of the photos, which is up to you. If you did decide to grant the model full shared rights to the photos you produced, they could then use them in any way they desired, which would mean they could be used for pay sites on the internet for profit, and your private collection you paid for wouldn't be very private anymore. If you are shooting this for another person who is a private collector and doesn't want them published, then you are working for the other person and being paid by them, and it would be up to that person to decide whether they wanted the photos shared with the model and rights to the photos granted to someone else. Whatever you do, have the model fill out & sign a model release form which clearly states the terms of the shoot, and take photos of 2 forms of ID which include the model's photo and birth date to cover yourself as far as the 2257 regulations go. You shouldn't have any problem finding models to shoot with who will be happy to get paid $300 and not ask for any rights to the photos. Good luck. Strict ties, thanks for the info! Blush, yes, fetish models do get payed well in Calif and N.Y. but I'm in Myrtle Beach, S.C. Kitten, I'm looking for slim/slender, petite or taller. I should have put that in my o.m.
