<p>Craig, I agree and don't want to go through a lawyer. I should have been more specific.</p>

<p>I am working part time as an employee at a hair salon doing photography + social media. The photos will fall under "work for hire" but we want to have a contract that states that I retain ownership but they can use them as they please.</p>

<p>I agree it needs to be spelled out but I'm not exactly how we would do that without having the situation right in front of us. I'm not even sure it will ever get to that level, I was just saying it to cover my butt and include it the contract. It's a boutique salon.</p>

<p>William, it's in Florida, US.</p>

<p>I was hired by a salon to do photography on a part time basis. They asked about who owns the rights to the images and they agreed to let me retain copyright as long as they have full use of the images for social media, ads, ect. The only stipulation is that if it ever goes to a national or multinational scale, we have to have to discuss further compensation.<br /> <br /> They asked me to send over a release/contract outlining the agreement but I'm having a hard time finding something that works since this will be an ongoing agreement. Can anyone make any recommendations or suggestions?<br /> <br /> Thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it.</p>

I got approached recently by the clearance coordinator for a new modeling show that will be premiering this fall on a pretty large network. They want to use a photo I took of one of the models who will be on the show. They aren't sure how many times they will use it but the contract they sent me gives them permission to use it when and as they please but she said as of right now it'll be shown for a few seconds in one of the episodes as the models "best shots" to show she's an established model. She never brought up compensation so I asked and she asked if I had a price.

 

So now I'm wondering what I should say in return, how much is too much or too little, if I should ask to write up my own contract with limited usage or what direction I should head in. I know the TV industry is known for screwing people and I don't want that to happen :) Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks so much!
