Photo Release Form for Minors

Have you ever wondered why you need to sign a photo or video consent form for your child before they can participate in school or extracurricular activities? The reason is simple: to ensure their pictures or videos are not used without the parent’s permission.

Organizations dealing with images of people are required to respect privacy, especially when it comes to students, so consent is necessary. Photography consent forms for minors are required in daycare, summer camps, youth sports activities, children’s auditions and talent shows. Daycares and schools use photo release forms to obtain permission from parents or guardians to use their child’s photographs from school activities or theatrical performances.

With the rise of social media, protecting children’s privacy has become more important than ever. Such forms usually include conditions of the media release, examples of permitted usage of the materials and a signature field for proper identification.

AidaForm’s photo consent form template for minors is an easy and convenient way to create a professional-looking form. With AidaForm’s template, you can customize the photo and video release form for minors to meet your needs and requirements. However, we recommend seeking legal advice before sharing the template with your clients.
