b'In this podcast I discuss the importance of model releases and I cover some important issues to remember when shooting in public. Below is a sample model release that you can copy and modify to suite your particular purpose. Also, here is a link to a document called "The Photographer\'s Right: Your Rights and Remedies when Stopped or Confronted for Photography" by Bert Krages, Attorney at Law.
