- FireBeyond 3y ago> If you are seeking to photograph for commercial purposes you may be required to gain permission from anyone who was involved in the film or photograph. Commercial purposes usually means that you are photographing for financial gain or to promote goods or services. When your income from Tiktok is tied to stream views etc., and you provide little journalistic content, you might have a hard time demonstrating that your stream wasn't "for commercial purposes". The ASMP (American Society for Media Photographers) who work to protect the rights of photography among other things recommends that property and other releases be obtained if used for commercial purposes and states that in some situations, a release may be "required".
