[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 203456, member: 1061"] Anyone under 18 also needs a parent/guardian signature. Colorado is one of about 15 states that [B]does not[/B] require a model release by state law. There's about 20 states where[B] it is[/B] state law (my state, Ohio, does) and several others have it outlined in local common law as a "suggestion when reasonably necessary". Regardless of law requirements, a model release offers protection to the photographer against a lawsuit. If you're selling someone's likeness for profit, without a model release, they can come back on you and demand compensation. Frankly, it's just silly to photograph anyone without a model release if you intend on making money on those photos. [/QUOTE]
