Terms & Conditions – Extension
Booking & Payment
A non-refundable retainer is required to secure your booking. Remaining balances are due by the agreed date stated in your invoice. Sessions are not considered confirmed until the retainer is received.
Cancellations & Rescheduling
If you need to cancel or reschedule, please contact us as soon as possible. Retainers are non-refundable, but we will do our best to accommodate a new date, subject to availability.
Creative Control
By booking, you acknowledge the photographer’s artistic style and creative judgment. While specific requests are welcome, final image selection, editing style, and creative direction remain at the photographer’s discretion.
Image Delivery
Galleries will be delivered digitally within the timeframe outlined in your contract. Prints and products may take additional time depending on the supplier. Images are provided in high resolution for personal use; commercial use requires written permission.
Copyright & Usage
All images remain the copyright of the photographer. Clients are granted personal usage rights, which include printing for personal use and sharing online (with credit). Images may not be altered with filters, sold, or used for commercial purposes without permission.
Liability
While every effort is made to provide a safe and professional experience, the photographer is not responsible for unforeseen circumstances such as illness, equipment failure, or acts of nature. In such rare cases, alternatives (such as rescheduling or a replacement photographer) will be offered.
Client Responsibility
Clients are responsible for arriving on time and prepared for the session. Delays may reduce shooting time. For events and weddings, the client is responsible for securing necessary permissions for photography at venues.
