Another bottom line question: Verbal agreements

    I had a fantastic (spur of the moment) opportunity today: To photograph the interior and exterior of a historic building which is now part of a hospital/respite center for the disabled. Out of respect for patient dignity and privacy they verbally asked me to allow them to vet any photos I wish to publish. I am perfectly agreeable with this, as I understand they are normally shy about allowing photographers in in the first place.

    Should I just leave things as-is, or take a step further to confirm all of this in writing to avoid any later confusion?

    No harm in doing up a quick page or two...
    if anything you can add a line to the affect " I wont publish these on tonights sixone news" to put their mind at ease too

    If both of you are happy with that why change it?

    Get it in writing to be absolutely sure. I would leave a space in the drawn up contract to allow you to insert names / numbers of any images you are allowed to use.

    I had an issue myself this week where a lady questioned me on a sample image I use on my stall front. She was quite agressive asking had I permission to use it, of course I had I ask every client if I can use images for display and have never had a no, usually they are quite proud to have their childs image on display, had I a document there I would have showed her too, I was quite surprised by the manner, by the way she was an aunt of the child.

    Because I've had my ass bitten in a very bad way in the past through other verbal agreements gone south/sour. I have a simple desire to pretty much just have "I will not publish these without your say-so" in writing.

    No harm I have a paragraph in all my wedding contracts to state that I will use the images for samples unless the clients wish otherwise, that way I dont even need to have specific permission on each image, by signing the contract the clients automatically agree, if they dont I mark it on the contract and we both initial it.
