Posts 72 		Is there the opportunity to upload pics of well know NZers? I understand that without MR forms they would need to be editorial only... but will they be accepted and is there a demand?

There are some (but not yet many) images of famous people in New Zealand in the mychillybin library at present as this has not been a particular focus.

We do recall a sale of the first of these 3 images by Canon S I of Lydia Ko. There are also a few images of John Key and other politicians and mayors etc at various public events.

In terms of releases for well known or famous people our lawyers have previously advised that the NZ law treats them no differently to any other people. So images of such people can be accepted for Editorial Use without a model release provided the images are openly taken whilst the photographer is standing in a public place.

There does seem to be a market for such images, both of a generic (not event specific) nature, as well as others with event context. Happy to start accumulating such images as this needs to happen before the resource can be marketed to potential users of this particular type of image.

cheers for now
