When to use this form
Use this consent when you plan to photograph people for marketing, events, portraits, or publications. It protects you before you shoot and before you publish. Use it at paid sessions, community events, corporate headshots, charity campaigns, student activities, and behind-the-scenes shoots. If you are on private property, pair it with a Location release form. For minors or campus events, add a School photo release form. For portraits or modeling work, keep a Model waiver & release form with the same client record. The result: clear permission, defined usage (web, social, print, ads), and fewer disputes later, so you can publish with confidence.
Must Ask Photography Consent Questions
- What is your full legal name and contact information?
This confirms who is granting permission and how to reach them about their rights. Accurate details prevent mix-ups with people who have similar names.
- Are you 18 or older, or is a parent/guardian providing consent?
Age determines who can lawfully sign. This keeps you compliant when photographing students and youth programs.
- What uses do you consent to (website, social, print, ads, video), and may we share or license images to partners?
Defining channels and third-party use prevents misunderstandings after publishing. It also speeds approvals for campaigns and partner placements.
- Are there any restrictions on how we may use your images (for example, no tagging, no names, or no commercial ads)?
Knowing limits upfront helps you honor privacy and avoid takedown requests. For non-legal preferences about styling or session plans, collect them in the Senior photography questionnaire form.
- How long does your consent last, and how can you revoke it?
A clear term and revocation path make the agreement practical and fair. It tells you when to stop use and how to remove images if consent changes.
