I mean you did mess up but that’s okay, I think you’ve gotten enough responses about that. Regarding the usage of the photos I recommend the following: If the original Facebook post clearly stated you’d be using these on your website, do NOT ask clients in the future a second time after the shoot. Like, don’t repeat the question. The post said what it said, use the photos. An agreement has been made. So things to improve there are:
Don’t ask for permission a second time.
Get a basic contract out simply stating price and usage and have them sign it.
