Frequently asked
A Model Release (Adult) is a written agreement where an adult (18+) gives permission for a photographer, brand, or business to use their image, likeness, voice, and/or recordings. It helps prevent disputes by clarifying how the content may be used, whether compensation is paid, and whether the model can revoke permission.
Use it before photographing or filming a person for commercial use — marketing, ads, websites, social media, product packaging, or promotional materials. It’s also helpful for editorial uses or portfolio uses, especially if the content may be widely distributed.
Typically the model grants permission to capture and use images and recordings, edit them, publish them in various media, and use them worldwide for a defined purpose. The agreement may be broad (all lawful purposes) or limited (specific campaign, time period, or channels).
Not always. A release can be paid or unpaid, but it should clearly state whether the model receives compensation and what that compensation is (cash, products, services, or credit). It should also address whether the model has any right to royalties (usually no).
Often, releases are drafted as irrevocable, especially when the content is used in marketing. However, revocation rules can vary by jurisdiction and by the contract terms. This template includes optional revocation language if you want to allow a limited revocation.
