I have a shoot with a minor, her parents are signing the release and leaving!!!
I will be alone with just me, the model, the MUA and the hair stylist. I'm scared, I mean a minor has to be accompanied by a parent to every photoshoot, even class pictures, right?
My god, i'm going to jail aren't I?

I prefer if the parents leave unless I need them to drive or help carry stuff.

Unless your opening statement has to include a blurb about Megan's Law, there is nothing illegal about doing a shoot with a minor without her parents being present.  Of course it depends on the style you'll be shooting, but that's for a different thread.  Besides, you'll have the MUA there anyhow.  What are you worried about??

I always have a webcam going all thru my shoot if they are under age and the parents have to leave for a few min or hours. The fact that you had MUA Hair stylist you shouldn't worrie that much any thing a youngster could conscrude as not normal you always have other adults there to prove other wise. Unless you had thoughts about poseing this minor in adult style pose doggie style legs spread open any thing like I would say get a lawyer SOON!

You'll have a signed permission / waiver from the parents, and... the MUA and stylist (or whoever) will be there as your witnesses that nothing happened...right?

Clearly you won't be alone then.



Don't worry.  I hear they don't normally gang up on you unless you refuse to give the model heroin...

Naw, you're alright. You have two witnesses and good references, right?

I shot last summer with a minor who is soon to become a major in the modeling industry. She came alone, we shot, and that's that. BTW, she's probably the best model I have EVER shot with.

LOL  I'd be locked up for life if that were true!

Adults are trusted with minors all the time, and everyday.  Class pictures do not have to be shot with a parent present.  You've got a MUA and a hairstylist, then don't worry.  The only problem with you being with minors is if you are a criminal convicted of crimes against children.
