Do I direct my subjects? No. Do I ask for permission? Yes. Do I ask 
for consent forms. No.

Everyone on the high holy horse of posing, my response is FINE.   But 
if you want to be ethical, you should ask permission before you post 
their photos on the web. It's common decency as well as the law in 
many places.

But as I've said repeatedly, I hold myself to a pretty high standard. 
You don't have to do so if you don't want to.
