reading ....I just skimmed thru it not knowing what laws are like where you live, but it seems rather wordy to me. If I were a client I would not sign or agree to allowing the photographer to allow third party usage, or to unrestricted use (meaning to me that the photos could end up who knows where).
Where I live photographers usually seem to get releases for portfolio use, promotional purposes etc., and may bill for the time spent waiting for a late client, allowing for a reasonable amount of time due to being stuck in traffic, etc. Are there any professional photographers organizations where you live? I find it helps to find out what is standard practice.
I don't know how relevant this would be but you could take a look at sample contracts at American Society of Media Photographers or try looking at PPA Professional Photographers of America and see what they have. I got a book that I found out about from ASMP but I don't know if those sample forms would work where you live or not.
