As a general rule, she would need permission (with signed releases) to use a photo commercially, of anyone in it that is recognizable. Crowd scenes, e.g., are not a problem, except any individuals detailed enough to identify.
If it's not for commercial use (magazines, catalogs, etc.), it would be a courtesy to ask permission to post them on the web (non-commercially), e.g. Some people might get nervous about their picture being seen by 6 billion people.
