To All Our Valued Photographers,

We have revised our forms to be used in association with all our future
shoots.

Attached is our current 2257 Compliance Form, Model Release,
Photographer Agreement and Model Bio. Please take a moment to print
these out and review them prior to any scheduled shoots in case you have
any questions.

The main difference on the 2257 form is that we are now requiring only
one form of identification. Our lawyer has advised us that only one
Government Issued Id is required and that including more than one ID in
2257 records may actually violate the provision which requires that all
other non-required records be kept separate from 2257 records §75.2(e).
In addition, asking for a second ID may result in inconsistencies
between the two IDs. Please keep in mind that a clear, good-quality
photocopy of the ID must be attached to the form and the photocopy must
be signed in ink by the Model (If the ID does not contain a recent and
recognizable picture of the Model, only a Driver's License, State ID
Card or Military ID will be acceptable for U.S. Models and only a
passport will be acceptable for foreign Models).

Also, please make a mental note to check if the Models have filled in
their Maiden name on the 2257 form if applicable as a good percentage of
these Models have been or are married.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns with these new
forms.

I've been wondering when somebody was going to do their 2257 this
way. The secondary piece of I.D. has never been required and maintaining the two I.D.'s together has been frowned on since day
one. You are the first clients I have had do this. It's nice to
see somebody who is trying to pay attention to the law for once.

We have been wondering if anyone else is using it. You are right, the
second ID was just adopted by the Adult Industry for some reason. I
never knew until our lawyer pointed it out when I questioned him on the
new forms, but apparently you did. hehe And you know more about 2257
than most so it is nice to know that we are covering each other's asses
here. Have a good one and see you in Phoenix I hope.
