It's best-practice to obtain a signed release for any photo, video, or
audio of a person which will be used in marketing or PR (I include the
website in that category). This is particularly the case for children.
I am not a lawyer, but after trawling a few dozen release forms I have
worked up the text below. Have I forgotten anything?
After your comments, I would of course like to run this by the SFC who
can vet it with legal eagle eyes.
thanks
