MODEL RELEASES

On this page you will find model releases covering adults, minors, and property. Releases are usually required before your pictures can be published or contest prizes claimed.  With your consent Little Rock Photo . Net  retains the rights to all images being printed.

The Permission Release will take care of most non-studio situations in which adults or minors have been photographed formally.  Photos taken at public events do not require a signed model release!
