MODEL RELEASE
(non-commercial exchange for photographs)
I __________________________ (hereafter "Model"), do hereby irrevocably
authorize Joi Carey and those acting with Photographer's permission,
to use photographs taken by Photographer of myself and derivative works based
thereupon (collectively hereafter the "Photos") for all lawful
purposes subject to the terms and conditions described herein.
I agree that the aforementioned exchange is for photographs delivered to me by Photographer in the quantity and format described as follows:
10 or more “best of” images
from the shoot - edited, retouched and optimized for web at 72 DPI
1 edited model’s print of choice on 8.5 x 11 stock
Additional prints and 300dpi images may be obtained from the photographer.
Photographer does not release unedited images and the model should not expect
to receive or inspect all of the raw images unless specific arrangements
are made in advance.
I agree that, while I may use the Photos for purposes related to the promotion
of my Modeling business, including but not limited to advertising, portfolios,
composite cards, exhibitions, contests, and promotional internet web sites,
I will not sell publication rights in any or all of the Photos without Photographer's
prior consent and agree to credit the photographer where the images are used
or forfeit my rights of use under this release.
Likewise, I authorize Photographer to use the Photos for purposes related to the promotion of Photographer's business, including but not limited to advertising, portfolios, composite cards, exhibitions, contests, and promotional internet web sites, and publication.
I acknowledge that any photos, artwork or illustrations given to me by Photographer are for personal use only and that Photographer retains copyright and ownership of any and all works created.

Model hereby releases and agrees to hold harmless Photographer and those acting under his permission, from any liability by virtue of editing the images unless it can be clearly shown that the foregoing was maliciously caused, and produced, and published solely for the purpose of subjecting Model to conspicuous ridicule, scandal, reproach, scorn, and indignity.
Model hereby affirms that all poses, positions and situations enacted in the Photos covered in this release were entered into without force, coercion, or threat whatsoever, and were posed freely by Model with Model's full consent. Model further agrees to hold blameless and free of all accusation of such force or coercion Photographer, his legal representatives, assigns, and those acting under his permission.
