Photos and their releases....
I wasn't sure where to post this so I figured for general.... I'd like to hire a stylist to give a fresh eye to my wardrobe for the upcoming shoots I have this month. Aside from actual payment I also wanted to provide him or her with copies of the processed photos from the shoots. (at least those that feature the outfits the stylist had chosen). The questions are.... a) Would I need to have the photographer's permission to do so? and b) Would I need to have the stylist sign a release to be provided to the photographer? I wanted to throw these out there before I posted a casting call. Thanks guys!

Mar 04 06 01:01 pm Link as far as a release from the the stylist... no. as far as prints for the stylist, you might ask the photographer to provide more, or you might have to pay for the prints for the stylist, but definately DON'T scan or reprint the images yourself for the stylist...a big no no. Usually the Photograher sets up stylists, and works out a prior arrangement.

In all of the cases I'll simply be receiving the jpeg version of the photos for my portfolio but realized that before I post that I'd like to offer photos to the stylist hired that I'd ask around and get a general opinion. But yes, you're right in asking the actual photographer his/her opinion as well. Thanks! Mar 04 06 01:07 pm Link |
