Another Photography Ethics Thread!

[MLeeK]

For yearbooks we shoot people without consent, i mean if someone comes up to me and says dont put that picture of me in the yearbook we dont, but nobody ever asks for consent. So it is ok to take pictures of people in public but if they know and ask you not to use it or delete you should comply.

In the packet our school sends home at the beginning of the year there is a release for the school to use any photos taken of your child in any way they see fit. You can opt out of it.

I was photographing sporting events (not the action, just the fans and stuff) for their Facebook page, and if I had to get written consent from every person who I photographed...

Well....I would have maybe 10 photographs.

I have never gotten a realease form from my school or yearbook staff.
