I can understand your frustration with someone registering a new nick just to post a question like that.
However, I find that the question is a valid and concerning one, and should be addressed in public instead of via PM.
So, as a moderator, I would like to verify with you: what is the age of the model? If she is below the age of 18, do you have parental consent in writen form for her to be engaged in such modelling work?
This is important information for al CS members who are interested to take part in this shoot.
Thanks!

OT a bit la...
I think the concern here is whether the model is under the age of 16.
A person can be employed so long as he/she is above 13 years old.
Under the Employment Act, and Children and Young Persons Act,
"child" means a person who has not completed his 15th year of age; "young person" means a person who has completed his 15th year of age but who has not completed his 16th year of age. The model is already 16 years old and considered no longer a child or young person.
Please refer to the below link for more information regarding employment of young persons.

There is nothing mentioned about parent's/guardians consent in both Acts. Perhaps a lawyer might want to clarify whether such consents are needed for employment? I'm concerned about this issue as well.
