It’s
not as serious or complex as some are making it. A model is
responsible for his/her own knowledge of the law. I am a photographer, not
a legal advisor. I don’t have to inform or educate the model on what their
rights are or should be. The same level of intelligence should apply to
photographers as well. That doesn’t mean either party should be
misleading, dishonest or deceitful either.
I
never once heard anyone assert or claim that a model should ‘be nice’ to the
photographer and inform the shooter what his/her rights are. We are all
adults and professionals. If a model doesn’t have enough common sense to
require or inquire about a release, then frankly, that’s the equivalent of a
photographer accepting work without any knowledge of what the work requires; you
are setting yourself up for failure and disappointment.

Re: Model Release Question
A model
release is like a condom. It protects it’s user. Don’t use one at your own risk.
Frankly, I think the model deserves to know what you can and can’t do and what
she can and can’t do with the images. And then of course are the agency
releases….

Question
For me it depends on what I am going to do with the photo,
because I am a MFA student I do not always require a model release If I feel
that I will be using the photos in the future to print then I will get a model
release, but in general you can sell a fine art print with no model releases but
you can not mass produce that image but I don’t remember what the number is that
you can sell, I do want to let you know though if you were to take the
photographer to court you would have to show that the photo damaged you the
court really does work for the arts unbelievable hope this helps
