Hello to you experienced shooters

I am retired and planning to travel a bit... mostly America .. but worldwide a little too.
I want to know what essential 'model release forms' and other considerations I need to work with.

I plan to travel lite... no checked bag.... just some select gear and minimal clothes...for the location
(purchase extra clothing etc at destination)

what prep do you recommend ... so that I can freely use pictures in a book or an article....on my return....
and what gear SHOULD I bring ... and should I NOT bring.

just a good hobbyist.. but have a book in mind.
not trying to make money .. just want to enjoy the exploration ... AND ... put the exploration in a little book
... ok maybe a 'coffetable' book.....

folks on this site are so helpful.

thanks so much for your tips

You refer to the documentation of authorizing the use of the image of a person?

In this case, the law may vary in different countries, but a simple and understandable text in the language of the country where the person photographed, and her signature should be sufficient. It is necessary that the text explain the intended use of the images and its limitation of use.

National parks and other public places of controlled use, shall require specific authorization more and more bureaucracy.
