You might want to read this article published in the Georgetown Law Journal a couple of years ago. Its a great analysis of how difficult it is to enforce these types of contracts outside of California...

This is an issue NO ONE thinks about. Thanks for clarifying Michael.

I've had two girl flip out after a shoot -- and both were in AZ. I stood my ground and just let them re-read their releases...and offered to take down the material if they were reimburse me what they were compensated. It ended there.

Michael -- was it Vermont or New Hampshire that recently OK'd smut production?
