I have many different photos. but some photos show the model's face. but these photos are my own. Some models do not want to fill out documents that confirm my copyright. they are busy filming, photo shoots, etc.

There are very much photos. and each of photo to check to copyright is imposible. How to do it. Can i upload them somehow???

This is not a question of copyright. The models do not confirm that you are the copyright holder. They confirm that you have the right to commercially use their image. So no model release, no upload.

 

The best is to get the model to sign the release together with the contract.

Without a signed and witnessed model release you cannot use images of recognizable people commercially.

The witness is not necessary. It's a nice to have. However, when the model is not 18 years, best is to have both parents to sign, one as the guardian, the other as the witness.

No, you can not submit images that do not include a model release in photos where the model can clearly be identified.
