Yes I wanted to make a point about this as well, and I forgot. Thanks
for reminding. On the legal point of view, I think we will need to
have:
1/ the explicit agreement of the photographer (licensing);
2/ the explicit agreement of the model (or their legal representative,
i.e. parents usually when they are underage) if there are human being
shown and recognizable in the photograph.

This way, we make sure to have photos usable under any circumstances.
That's more bothering, but better be safe than sorry.

Well if that costs you money (renting camera/model) and is done for
this specific task, I would be for crowdfunding a bit. Unless that's
not your sole purpose and you are planning to use these photos somehow
else.
Otherwise I don't think we are in a hurry, and the set can also be
gathered slowly with time and patience (when a photograph hires a
model or is hired for some usual shooting purpose, one can just ask
the model if he'd accept some photos, and which ones, to be used in a
test set).
