I have a question regarding the photography of property. I have for some time photographed items that have been cast off and left to rust away. Recently I started to make enlargements of these photographs and created a signed and numbered editions from them. Then I started thinking about Model releases for photographing people and wondered if I need a property release for the items that I am shooting. Most of these items I photograph are on private property but I use telephoto. An art director told me that if the photo can be taken from public property, such as the street or a road out front of the property that I dont need a release. Therefore not having to buy permission to photograph. Can someone give me some insight on this? Do I need to get a release to photograph someones property if I get it from the street, and then if I sell the photo do I owe them a percentage?
Any help would be appreciated,
