Hi,
I'm an amateur photographer with a D500 and a 24-70mm and a few other lenses. I have an opportunity to do some product photography for a small wholesale pet supply company and would like to form an LLC or S-Corp to do this.
I'm already a business owner (C-corp), but I haven't had to incorporate in a long time, and I know how much things have changed.
I still intend on remaining an amateur with only occasional photo gigs when the opportunity arises.
Did you use a service like legalzoom to incorporate, or would you recommend an actual lawyer? Did you become an LLC? S-Corp? Where did you get your insurance? Did you incorporate in your state or in DE?
Do you have a preferred photo release/disclaimer? What kind of release would I need for some simple product photography? I'd like to retain ownership of the images and be able to use them in my marketing and provide the buyer with a lifetime free-use license.
Maybe there's an easier way for a "mostly" amateur photographer that picks up a gig and has to occasionally pay taxes?
