Free Model & Print Release Templates

Free starting templates for a model release and a print release, covering the essentials each document needs.

A model release grants permission to use someone's likeness for specified purposes; a print release grants a client permission to print their own digital files at a lab of their choosing. Neither transfers copyright away from the photographer.

Both can be built as a contract in lemon.gallery, editable to your specific terms, and sent for e-signature the same way as a standard shoot contract.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need both a model release and a print release?

It depends on the shoot — a print release matters whenever digital files are sold, while a model release matters if you plan to reuse the images beyond the client's own use.
