VARIATIONS

Revisions to any contract prior to the date of photography session are allowed and we will be quite flexible in allowing a number of changes, however, we have the right to limit the number of changes to a reasonable amount and may charge for the additional changes. We will advise the client of any charges due to changes before proceeding with those changes. The intent of this is to limit excessive changes prior to photography session, event or date.

SUPPLY OF SERVICE

  1. A booking will not be made until a deposit is received and a contract is signed by the relevant parties.
  2. When selecting goods to posts or deliver check the packaging to make sure there are no marks or tears as you want the products to look there best in the images.
  3. The booking of and any additional costs incurred for booking venues, photography locations etc. are the client’s responsibility unless otherwise agreed.

  6. The digital files remain the property of the photographer and will be kept on file for a period not exceeding five years.
  7. The photographer will supply professionally finished images to the customer’s requirements, however, RAW or working images are not supplied and remain the property of the photographer.
  8. It is important that the customer accurately specify or indicate the type of images that they want. For example, does the customer want flat finished images in a jpeg or similar format or does the customer want an image that is cut-out (that is the image has the background removed) such as a PNG image?
  9. The client acknowledges that the photographer has no control over the environment in which photographs, albums and digital files are kept by the client and that printed images in common with all sensitised materials and colour dyes have a limited life expectancy which is further reduced when exposed to strong or prolonged sunlight, heat or fluorescent light sources.
  10. The Client is responsible for organising return postage when the photoshoot is completed.

LOSS OR DAMAGES

  1. We are not liable for any loss or damage which you may suffer which is in any way attributable to any delay in performance or completion of our contract, however that delay arises.
