This agreement is for one photography booking, where the client is an individual or a business. It is not a model release and not a licence to sell images through a stock or picture agency. It is drafted for England and Wales.

Who is this template for?

Suited to photographers booked for weddings, portraits and family sessions, events or commercial work, and to clients who want the shoot, fee, cancellation terms and image rights set out in writing.

What does the template include?
