### Showcase Your Best Work with Professional Media Release Forms

For architecture firms, your portfolio is your most powerful marketing tool. Every completed project represents years of design expertise, technical innovation, and creative problem-solving. But before you can share stunning photography of that residential masterpiece or submit that commercial build to industry awards, you need proper permission from your clients.

This **Architecture Project Media Release Form** helps architecture and design firms secure clear, documented consent to photograph, publish, and promote completed projects across all your marketing channels.

#### Why Architecture Firms Need Media Release Forms

Even when you've designed and delivered an exceptional building, the property belongs to your client. Without a signed media release, you may not have the legal right to:

 - Photograph the completed project for your portfolio
 - Publish project images on your website or social media
 - Submit the work to architectural awards and competitions
 - Feature the project in case studies, brochures, and presentations
 - Share the work in industry publications and press releases

A professional media release form protects both parties. Your clients understand exactly how their property will be featured, and your firm gains the freedom to showcase work that wins new business and establishes your reputation in the industry.

#### What This Template Captures

This template covers everything you need for comprehensive media consent:

**Project & Client Details** – Capture the project name, address, type (residential, commercial, institutional), and client contact information. This creates a clear record of what property the release covers.

**Media Usage Scope** – Define exactly what you're asking permission for: professional photography, social media posts, website portfolios, award submissions, press features, and marketing materials. Clients can grant full or limited rights based on their comfort level.

**Photography Details** – Record when photography will take place, whether interior and exterior shots are included, and if the client or occupants will be featured in any images.

**Attribution Preferences** – Some clients love public recognition; others prefer privacy. Capture whether they want to be named, have the project location disclosed, or remain anonymous.

**Duration of Rights** – Specify whether the media release is perpetual or time-limited, giving clients control over long-term usage.

**Award Submission Consent** – Architecture awards often require separate permission since they involve third-party publication. This form includes specific consent for award entries and the publicity that follows.

#### How Paperform Streamlines the Media Release Process

Rather than chasing down email approvals or mailing physical contracts back and forth, Paperform lets you collect media releases digitally with features built for professional services:

**Professional, branded forms** – The doc-style editor means your release form matches your firm's visual identity. Add your logo, studio photography, and brand colors to create a form that feels like an extension of your practice, not a generic legal document.

**Conditional logic for flexible permissions** – Use Paperform's conditional fields to show relevant questions based on project type or client preferences. If a client opts out of social media use, follow-up questions about Instagram tagging don't appear. This keeps the form streamlined and respectful of boundaries.

**eSignature integration with Papersign** – Turn approved submissions into legally binding signed agreements using [Papersign](https://papersign.com). Send the completed media release for eSignature, creating a court-ready document with full audit trail—no printing, scanning, or couriering required.

**Automated workflows with Stepper** – Use [Stepper](https://stepper.io) to build smart workflows around your media releases. When a form is submitted, automatically generate a PDF, save it to the project folder in Google Drive or Dropbox, send a copy to your marketing team, and add the project to your "approved for portfolio" database in Airtable or Notion.

**Clear documentation and compliance** – Every submission is timestamped and stored securely, giving you a permanent record of what clients agreed to. If a project gets featured in a magazine two years later, you have proof of consent on file.

#### Who Benefits from This Template

This template is purpose-built for:

 - **Architecture firms** seeking to build robust portfolios of residential, commercial, and institutional work
 - **Design-build practices** that need marketing materials to attract new clients
 - **Boutique studios** preparing award submissions for AIA, Architizer, and other industry competitions
 - **Interior designers and architects** collaborating on high-end residential projects
 - **Landscape architects** documenting outdoor spaces and site transformations
 - **Adaptive reuse specialists** showcasing before-and-after transformations

Whether you're a solo practitioner or a multi-partner firm, protecting your right to share your work is essential for growth, recognition, and client acquisition.

#### Make Every Project a Marketing Opportunity

Great architecture deserves to be seen. With a professional media release process powered by Paperform, you can turn every satisfied client into a portfolio piece and every completed project into proof of your firm's capabilities.
