Better than nothing. Unless you and the model are actually friends,
having an assistant along is a good idea. Often, models will want to
bring an escort for their "safety", having an assistant has the same

Yeah, I'd be operating from the assumption that any model would insist
on bringing an escort, particularly on a first-time shoot with a
photographer. In fact, I'd question the judgment of any model who didn't.
I'm cool with the model having her own escort, although sometimes that
means "boyfriend" & they can occasionally be interfering assholes.
Still, I prefer to have my own witness who has no relationship with the
model.
Even if the woman who had the 13 y.o. daughter isn't exactly "matronly",
I figure she has to be at least 30 yo and that's better than having to
rely on some 17 y.o. boyfriend to tell the truth in case of any dispute.
As far as contracts & releases, they're way cheaper than paying a lawyer
to defend you from a lawsuit.
