That is only relevant if you want to take a Photo of lady blah-blah

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

Well you would have to force the other photographers to sign a release...and because your usually on public property you really cant do too much to stop them other than to ask them not to take photos of you....
