When the model has signed the contract to the effect that her photographer can earn in the future also it is a concluded contract and any number photos regenerated from the negatives can be sold, and the negatives can also be sold. No legal hazzle.

Again you did not include if in the contract she was to be paid for future use, actual ownership is the issue, if she merely saigs a contact that he can use them without asking her, he would still be requried to pay her the contract percentage on the photos. And there was no requirement that they be used, only they could be used.
