Do you need to make sure brand names/logos aren't in the photos in your portfolio? Does it depend on whether it was a paid shoot?

I am not a lawyer, but I don't think there is an issue with brand names in a portfolio. You just wouldn't be able to sell the photos to someone else with the logos in them. And even there, there may be some wiggle room for editorial and fine art usage.
