We have a waiver for children who participate in our programs that asks permission to photograph children. However, we just ran into this issue last week when we wanted to take photos of birthday party participants that are not offered waivers, and I'm not sure what the final decision was. Last summer, we took photos of children in an exhibit and asked parents for their names, but did not have them sign waivers, and I know at other times, we have taken photos of people at special events and did not ask permission nor get names. These photos are limited to "in-house" use through newsletters, but not on brochures. However, we have a new marketing person, and I anticipate we will be looking into a more permanent policy, also. Our biggest question is the legality of it. What happens if we publish the photo of a child who is for some reason involved in a custody battle or has some other family issue that for some other reason we shouldn't have published a minor's photo. This doesn't seem to be an issue with adult photos?!
