Why do photographers need a Minor Image Release Form?
When photographing minors, it is essential to have a signed release from a parent or guardian. The Minor Image Release Form ensures that photographers can use the child's images for advertising and promotions while providing parents with the flexibility to dictate how and where these images may be displayed. This release establishes clear communication about the use of the images, promoting professionalism in client relationships.
