Photo legal issues




I have searched for an answer to my question and did not see it here but if indeed it is I would appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction.

My question is this: How or what kind of agreement does one use to ask for permission to use "photos" taken of your clients artwork that you did yourself--to use those photos of your work in your brochures, on your web site, etc.?

I just had a business meeting with my client. She was ok with having her grandchildren painted by me. When I asked her to sign a release she was a bit uneasy as to why I needed it. Her reaction made me re-think of my own agreement. She pointed out that I had asked for the use of photos for advertising ,etc but I had not stated that names would be withheld and anonymous. But she also seemed a bit fearful of the computer thing as she does not use a computer but hears about "children being exploited on-line"

Now realize that she did not doubt me at all and the agreement went through but wondered if I might need further wording to protect myself.

Do I make sense? The other one was of Sales Tax. I always tax. She claimed that no-one has taxed her on artwork (she has loads of it)

What do you think? Any one wish to share their wording for a Release Form?

Thanks

Patt
