Quick question for those who are familar with the law side of photography...

If you do a TFP photoshoot with a model and no TFP/Waiver contract was signed from either party.... who ultimately owns the legal rights and copyrights to the photographs? And does the owner (whether it be the photographer or model) "NEED" consent from the other party to publish any of the photos? (Publish - internet, print, etc.. some form of publication, non-commercial though)
Thanks!
