Hello
Is a model release needed for a stock photo if the subject's face is not in the photo? Just the legs and buttocks.

Hi Anthony,
Thank you for taking the time to seek our answer to your question. The rule of thumb you can go by to decide if model release is necessary is to ask yourself if the model would be able to recognize his or her body part image your are uploading. If yes, then secure a model release. If in doubt, secure a model release. And to add a closeup of a model turning his or her back require a release.
I hope you found my answer helpful
Best wishes
