Arts Law Sample Agreement

Photographer’s Model Release

by Arts Law Centre of Australia

In Australia, there are no specific laws preventing a photographer from taking photographs of people and private property from a vantage point on public property. However, other Australian laws do incidentally restrict the use that can be made of photographs of people and their property.

For this reason, it is recommended best practice that all photographers use a written release when photographing individuals or private property in order to prevent any infringement of the peoples' rights. Such a release needs to be unambiguous and to clearly authorise use of the photographs in the way in which the photographer contemplates. This sample Photographer's Model Release protects photographers against any claim from people depicted in a photograph.
