PS: it depends on what country you live in....US is ok some/most of the time on public pics....Canada however is not as friendly (legally) to that content from what I gatherInvestor with 5m - 15m USD to invest. Do you have a site or network of sites earning 50k - 200k a month income? Email your contact and preliminary data to: domain.cashventures (at) gmail.com....Please...no tire kickers...serious offers and inquiries only.

But let say I take pictures at a club when one has to be at least 18 yrs old to enter, would it be legal to take nude pictures of girls without any release form?Comment

Its legal as long as your taking photo's that can be seen from the public view.
So you cant use zoom lens into someones house windows.
Nor can you put cameras on your shoes and take upskirts.
proof of age is not needed nor is consent.hatisblack at yahoo.comComment

Often the weatherman etc will be at the beach commenting on the weather , with loads of people in bikini's.
If your FOCUSING on one person , you could be liable for a lawsuit thoughhatisblack at yahoo.comComment

making a paysite full of girls in bikinis on the beach with no age proof is a bit risky in my opinion.

This question reminds me of this news program i saw a few years back , and was quite curious as to what happened to the guy.
The guy was going around to schools and offering FREE PHOTOS of the girls cheerleading squads, but he was saving half the shots for his cheerleaders site of underage girls. The girls were never nude , but the photo's def pushed the limit. Full on triple zoom shots upskirt. I dont think he got busted , i think he just got told not to come back to the schools.hatisblack at yahoo.comComment

Thanks, but despite the legal loopholes, I find even the idea of underage models (dressed or undressed) on a site intended for spankers, distasteful.
Don't even get me started on sites that portray women as underage! (which IS illegal here in Canada)Comment

Dutch channels show programs about the beaches in spain and the youth who goes crazy there in the nightlife. Guaranteed youre gonna see some nude 16 yr old titties.
The only place where that is totally unaccepted is America and the internet (because everybody thinks America decides whats legal on the net)Comment

I dont think he ever intended on intentionally taking pictures of underage girls. I think he was more concerned with the inability to monitor the ages of those involved without gaining consentOriginally posted by emmanuelle

While I am not condoning the idea, a woman on a beach has no reasonable expectation of privacy. Therefore it is not voyeurism.Comment

Yes, I know what he was proposing, and my reasons are the same. Since I would not be in a position to monitor the ages of those involved, I want nothing to do with it.Originally posted by SmokeyTheBear

I asked this question at a seminar in San Diego . . . and the attorney said that if it is a posed photo, there must be a release . . . if you just happened to catch something in the background, no release was required.
Not sure how that would apply if you just started taking pics of chicks at the beach without their knowledge. This is the kind of thing you should talk to an attorney about rather than get your legal advice at GFYComment

That Part V of the Criminal Code be amended to create a specific offence that would prohibit surreptitious, non-consensual viewing, photographing or videotaping of another person in a dwelling house or business premises where there is an expectation of privacy and if the viewing, photographing or videotaping is done for a sexual purpose.
I'm getting he public pictures law from Quebec give me a few.

You cant shoot your content in a strip club :PSIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.Comment

In Quebec, there was a ruling not so long ago that said that if your picture has a subject, you need its release (her release in this case)
So if you shoot a picture of the beach (with dozen of people going about their business) its fine. But if you shoot a picture of a girl or two on the beach, no release = possible lawsuitLiveBucks / Privatefeeds - Giving you money since 1999

Pretty easy to get around that by taking huge raws, then cropping them.Comment

Alex - like I said, contact a lawyer.
http://www.cdpdj.qc.ca/en/human-righ...noeud2=3&cle=0
Read the Quebec Charter of Human Rights -
You'd be infringing on two of them:
The right to protection of personal dignity, honour and reputation [s. 4].
The right to privacy [s. 5].
& The following are also required to comply with the Charter:
all groups and organizations;
all private businesses;
all services, whether public or private;
all government authorities (provincial, municipal, educational, etc.);
the government of Québec and its institutions, at all levels.
In Québec, no individual or organization whatsoever under provincial jurisdiction* may be exempted from the provisions of the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms. [s. 55].
Besides that - if you so happen to get a juvenile in there - your problems are even more severe. I'm not telling you don't - I'm not telling you do it - I'm saying get a lawyer to give you confirmation - I did.

I'm not saying that I will go tommorow to a beach club and start taking pictures of sexy girls in bikini to put it in a paysite. And before spending money on lawyers, I think it's good to get comments from other webmasters.

I would be very careful especially in Canada. I think it is all in the intent.
Someone mentioned the local news at the beach. The weatherman from the local news might be at the beach saying how it is perfect weather to enjoy the beach. They show young, old, fat, skinny, men, woman etc.
If you go to the beach and take pictures of girls in a bikini, your intent is to sexual stimulate individuals to pay you to view the pictures. You will be taking close-up ass shots, boob shots of girls bending over etc.
The television station makes money from delivering the news...the people caught on camera are background material they are not what the television station actually makes profit from. You on the other hand are directly profiting from taking pictures of individuals to sexual stimulate others without their consent.
Now, if you were to go to the beach and take a picture of my daughter who is legal and put it on a paysite as jerk material I would have her sue your ass off...and knowing what prudes the judges are in Canada I'm certain I would win. People going to these websites are the same people that go to porn sites and hence if someone saw my daughter on a tour, they may assume she may be naked inside...and hence you have in my daughters opinion ruined her reputation.
Now if you put my under-age daughter in there in her bathing suit I would not sue you, I would have someone castrate you.
It is almost impossible these days to determine the age of anyone. 22 year olds look like they are 14 and some 14 year olds look like they are 22.
My suggestion, stop being such a cheap ass and actually buy content. All it would take is one person to bitch and it to hit the news and you will have everyone an their brother joining together to sue you and you will lose everything.Comment

BTW - just wanted to mention that Dugmor isn't a good example. From my understanding, Dugmor was a very good friend & promoter of most of the strippers in Montreal - I'm sure he had no problem filming there or taking pictures there & I wouldn't be surprised if he has written permission from all of them.
1) Publicity for the stripper
2) Publicity for the club
Asking on GFY is good if you have alot of Quebecers & Canadians - however that is not the case. The other thing is that someone may very well be doing it - illegally & not getting caught. You do it & then your luck someone finds their picture & takes you to court.
My lawyer is related to me so it's free - but I'm sure a consultation from any lawyer will save you a heck of alot more than the $ 250-$500 it may cost you to get sound legal advice.
That's my take on it - cropping pictures is not your workaround the law.Last edited by HS-Trixxxia; 07-24-2004, 05:16 AM.

You may ***NOT**** use it in any commercial manner without a signed model release.
The grey area is, if it is news.
Talk to a lawyer who works in this area.
Also, check out Canadian photographer resource web sites.
