Photographers need two kinds of paperwork: a contract with each client, and a release from each person in front of the camera. Both work better signed online than printed and scanned.

Start with an inquiry form to qualify bookings, then send the contract and releases before the shoot.

## Tips for photography paperwork

- **Sign the contract with the deposit:** Send the photography contract when the client pays the deposit, so the date is booked and the terms are agreed together.
- **Get releases on the day:** Show the model release QR code on set, and every model signs on their own phone before you shoot.
- **Qualify inquiries before the call:** Lead mode marks couples with a booked venue and a fitting budget as hot, so you reply to them first.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do I need a model release for every photo?

You need one when you use a recognizable person's image commercially, such as ads, stock or brand work. Personal and editorial use often needs less, so check the law where you work.

### Can clients sign a photography contract online?

Yes. Clients add their shoot details and sign on any device, and the signed PDF is saved with an audit trail.

### Can I edit the contract terms?

Yes. Change any term in the builder and fill in the bracketed amounts for your packages.
