Also, I read on your group "Model I shot a while ago. We couldnt pay her enough to get a FULL release for our sites".

As a point of interest, are you sure that is required?

I'm in England, and here a release is NOT a legal requirement to use photographs that are self taken. The copyright remains with the photographer, regardless of whether or not a "release" was signed.

However, sometimes a publication will insist on one.

But yeah, unless there was a binding agreement that the photos would NOT be used, likewise the video, then (in England at least) you can use them.
