H. Model Release
I hereby give to Megan Leigh Photography the absolute and irrevocable right and permission with respect to the photographs that he/she has taken of myself and/or my minor child in which he/she may be included with others:
a) To copyright the same in the photographer’s name or any other name that he/she may select;
b) To use, re-use, publish and re-publish the same in whole or in part, separately or in conjunction with other photographs, in any medium now or hereafter known, and for any purpose whatsoever, including (but not by way of limitation) illustration, promotion, advertising and trade, and;
I hereby release and discharge photographer from all and any claims and demands ensuing from or in connection with the use of the photographs, including any and all claims for libel and invasion of privacy.
I. Liability
Photographer is not responsible for any injuries inflicted upon any participating parties. Client(s) will be responsible for their children and for themselves and release photographer from any claims against their person or their business.
J. Copyright & Penalty
Megan Leigh Photography retains all copyrights to all images created during client’s session. A print release is included with digital files to print portraits for personal use. The print release does not allow publication of your portraits (i.e. entering in contests), selling or altering of your images without the photographer’s written permission.
Note from photographer: I work very hard to create images that reflect you and your family, while keeping in line with my artistic vision and creativity. I know you will want to share them and include a sneak-peek for that very reason. However, I ask that you simply link back to my blog/website/facebook page or tag yourself instead of right-clicking, saving, and sharing the image via your own page. I hope that you will respect not only my hard work, but the time, money, and dedication that I have put into training and equipment to capture these images for you.
J. Session Requests
*No cameras/camcorders/any type of recording device are allowed during the session unless prior arrangement has been made between client and photographer. Quick cell phone shots I'm okay with as long as they do not start to interfere with the session.
*Session starts at the agreed upon time. It is strongly encouraged that client arrives 10 minutes prior to the start of session. This allows for any last-minute feeding, changing, and relaxing before session begins.
*Please avoid eating or drinking red or orange food or drinks before session, as red and orange tend to leave a stain on the face.
K. Late to Session
Arriving late does not extend your session time later. If you do arrive late, that does cut into the time we have. Please be sure to contact me if you are running late. If there has been no contact, the session will be cancelled after 20 mins pass the scheduled time and a new retainer will be required for a new session date.
