I am just getting started in stock photography and have a question regarding model and property releases.  I am planning to sell photos on multiple stock sites and am hoping that I can use a generic release form that will be accepted by all.  Or maybe there is a release provided by one of the major stock sites that will be accepted by all the others?

Any advice?  Thanks!

Eric

I use own release samples, compiled by myself, on the basis of several examples from different agencies. Since they have all the information needed about the model - fullname, address, phone number etc, information about the shooting time and location, description of shooting, and the widest extent of rights is transferred, no one finds fault with the form
Even Istock  :)

Hey Timbrke, thanks for the advice!  After waiting two weeks for a response, I ended us just doing the same by printing out and comparing Model Releases from the top five stock companies.  It took a few hours, but the end product should satisfy most or all the stock companies.

Again, I appreciate your response. It was a bit discouraging as a new member to post a sincere question to this forum and receive zero responses... until yours!  Have a great day.  Eric

Hi Eric. I use Easy Release which is an app for phone or tablet, Apple or Android. All agencies accept it, it's great as I always have my phone with me. No need for printing anything, just use the jPeg it makes. I made my own before using Easy Release but some agencies don't accept them.
