Even if it's TFP, you need to have some sort of agreement in place. Any exchange of services has value under the law, and it's prudent to ensure that things are spelled out. As I alluded to above, I don't believe it's necessary to have a formal contract for such things, but some record of what you offer and the other party's acceptance is a good idea, even if only for something as simple as portfolio use, or how many pictures the talent is going to get. Do you really want some pi$$ed off model going on a facebook rant about what a bad photographer you are because she misunderstood what you said in regard to how many pictures she would get from the shoot?-Would you use a contract even if it's a TFP setup? And why?
No. Because it is un needed. Unless you get s photo of someone you think will be saleable then you should get the rights, from that individual.
How about in the case of say, it's the subject or model who has the idea / concept for the shoot, how will the copyright terms be ? Half the model's , half the photographer ?
I am currently in talks with someone who wants to start a fashion blog and I'm presented with concepts inspired by a couple of photographers. So in my mind, it's not like we can copy anything from those 2 photographers and I wouldn't want them in my portfolio if images end up being the same as those, but since the idea isn't mine... how would that go? The model also wants to use particular locations too. My guess is they have an idea what background to use, colors and stuff.
