Modellrelease

Hej. Min fråga gäller mina rättigheter som fotograf vid så kallade TFP plåtningar och även vid betalda model plåtningar. En kollega till mig har av en modell blivit ombedd att ta bort alla bilder på henne från hans sida. Avtalet i det fallet var muntligt. Hon fick bilder till sin portofolio gratis mot att fotografen fick andvända bilderna för egen maknadsföring.

Har modeller rätt att bryta det muntliga avtalet? Vad gäller vid skrivet avtal?
Och ser det annorlunda ut vid betalt modell jobb?

Den info vi hittat hitills känns orimliga för en fotograf...

Mvh o tacksam för hjälp

Muntliga avtal gäller men är svårare att i efterhand bevisa. Se till att du gör skriftliga avtal. Om modellen vill ha bort bilderna så kan du säga till om att hon inte heller längre får använda bilden i sin marknadsföring eller portfolio. Om du inte har vittnen till det muntliga avtalet och kan bevisa det så är det nog bäst att betrakta avtalet som uppsagt. Även avtal kan sägas upp, evighetsavtal är inte lagligt giltiga. Gör du ett skriftligt avtal gäller det som står i avtalet.
