them all in order," I said in a playfully businesslike tone as he took them. "Good," he replied. "All we need to do now is get your signature on a model's release." "What's that?" I asked. Tom reached into a desk drawer, and brought out another form. "This," he said, "is a Model's Release. We can't use any photographs of you for any purpose unless we have one on file. By signing it, you give the studio the right to sell photos of you as long as you have been compensated for the session during which they were taken." This was still a little new to me, so I asked, "Why do you need it? I thought that all you did was take the picture, and use it." "Not quite," Tom replied. "You see you have a right to privacy under the law. If someone takes your picture, and sells it without your written permission, that is an invasion of privacy. The only exception to that is if you are a public figure, or are involved in a news event. The Model's Release is your written permission for the studio to use your pictures for any purpose as long as it does not defame your character, and we have paid you in some way for posing. Okay?" It seemed all right, but I still asked, "What do you mean by any purpose?" "Well," said Tom, "let's say that we did the coat layouts. We could also use some of those shots for our own advertising. If we did a portfolio for you gratis, we could use the pictures as stock shots for ... other things. It's really to your advantage. It lets us get your pictures around, and that could mean more work and money for you." I signed the form. "Good," said Tom. "Now you're officially a model. Welcome to the studio! Are you ready to get started?" He did not have to ask. "Yes," I replied. "What happens next?" "What happens next," said Tom, "is for us to get you in front of a lens. I have a deal for you. As a model or a dancer, you're going to need a portfolio to show. The test shots we want to do could be the basis for that. We'll do a full portfolio for you today if you'll allow us to sell the shots as stock photos, and do some cross-dress cheesecake and soft core stuff of you. Your fee for today will be the portfolio, so you get no royalties for the shots if we sell them. We usually charge two-hundred and fifty dollars for a portfolio session like this, so you aren't being cheated." The deal sounded all right, so I agreed. "Okay," said Tom, "then it's time to meet your photographer." "Aren't you going to take them?" I asked. "No," Tom replied with a laugh. "I run things now. I only do a few special assignments any more. I've got eight photographers working for me. You'll like the one you're working with." Tom picked up the phone, dialed an extension, and said, "Ray?... Can you step into the office?" There was a short pause, and Tom hung up the phone saying, "Ray's one ...
