We have even released a property release and discussed all you need to know on when to use them, again, linked in the "Business" section here.
In fact if you have never been to that page, you should not only bookmark it for yourself, you should share it with everyone you know. There is some good stuff there.
Well I am releasing a Wedding Amendment to the PhotoTips website. It was already included in the Wedding 101 video class we have for download here, but thought having it available for all was a good thing.
DISCLAIMER: Here is the part where I tell you that I am not an attorney, and the information I am providing to you in this blog post is free to use, but please use it at your own risk. You should always contact an attorney in your area to find out what is permissible, legal, and acceptable in your area.
Having said all of that, this is what I have been using, and I am sure I got it from somewhere else too.
Feel free to take what I am using, and modify it to suit your needs. Simply copy and paste into your own document.
