Terms Of Service

Booking

When booking a session, I like to meet and book in person. This gives us a chance to go over the Client Questionnaire and get to know each other so it’s more comfortable on the day of your session. The Photography Client Questionnaire is available on the site to download.

A $50 retainer fee is due at booking to hold your session date and time. The retainer fee is non-refundable and applied to your balance.

You must confirm your appointment at least 48 hours ahead of time. If not by 24 hours it will be considered cancelled.

 

Payment

Payment for services is due upon completion of work. The retainer will be shown as a credit on the invoice.

We accept

  • Cash
  • Check
  • Payment On Website
  • Zelle

 

Services

If a session has more than one location drive time will not be deducted from the shooting time of your session.

Under the circumstances a session goes over the allotted time frame, there is no extra charge added but a cutoff time of 30 minutes.

All final edited images are sent to you in a digital gallery at full resolution within a week of your session. You can download and print these images if the print release has been signed at booking. Galleries will expire after 30 days and a fee may be required to post again. 

I retain the copyright to all imagery and reserve the right to use it for display, promotional/marketing purposes. The client understands and agrees that it is not buying the images but is paying only for a license to use the image.

Images should not be altered. The client will not make or permit any alterations, including, but not limited to, filters, additions, subtractions, or adaptations, for the Image(s), alone or with any other material, without the prior express permission of the Photographer. Portrait sessions include editing which consists of changes to the color, crop, contrast, & exposure at the photographer’s discretion.

I do not give out RAW or unedited images, as they do not reflect my work.

 

Prices & Terms

All prices shown within the Photographer’s price list are subject to change without prior notice. The Photographer reserves the right to amend these Terms and Conditions without prior notice.

 

Failure To Perform

If I am unable to supply photographic services due to illness, mechanical breakdown, accident, acts of God, or any other cause beyond our control, I will attempt to procure the services of another professional photographer to fulfill our obligations. If that does not succeed, I will return any fees paid by the Client and will have no further liability for this agreement, and will not be responsible or liable for any other damages beyond the amount of this agreement.

This limitation of liability will also apply if any Image is lost or damaged through equipment malfunction, or otherwise, without the fault of the Photographer.

 

Cancellation/Reschedule

Life happens. Kids have bad days. We want to capture you on a good day! If you need to cancel or reschedule the first one is on me. I will hold the retainer fee so you can easily reschedule. If a session must be canceled or rescheduled for a second time, another retainer fee will be required to hold an appointment.
