Photo / Content Release Form
Note from the Founder, Brianna: This form is to simply protect all volunteers who are involved with Sea Together Magazine. People recently told me I needed to have this to protect myself legally and all other volunteers involved, so I created one easy for everyone to submit their form to. Know that we credit all contributors/photographers/artists, and this is just to protect our side of things so we don't get sued, etc., and to make sure on your side that you realize that your photos and content will be in print in Issue 001, Issue 002, and Issue 003 :-)
We can't include your submission / move forward in printing without everyone submitting this. Feel free to contact me with any concerns or edits we can potentially make with the form (I repurposed this form from online). Submit the form at the bottom of the page. Thank you so much for your contribution to making Sea Together happen!
Also just a reminder that we are all volunteers and that this is side passion project with dreams to grow and none of us are getting paid.
