Photography Policies & Terms
1. Booking & Payments
A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your booking. This is non-refundable but can be transferred to a rescheduled session (see below).
For small sessions (£50-£150): 30% deposit
For mid-range sessions (£150-£400): 40% deposit
For large sessions (£400+
): 50% deposit
The remaining balance must be paid:
For portrait/lifestyle sessions: On the day of the shoot (before starting).
For event photography & large projects: At least 3-7 days before the shoot.
For extra product orders (prints/canvases), full payment is required upfront.
2. Cancellations & Rescheduling
If you need to reschedule, please notify me at least 48 hours in advance to transfer your deposit to a new date.
Cancellations made within 48 hours of the session will result in the loss of the deposit.
In case of bad weather for outdoor shoots, we will reschedule at no extra cost.
3. Session Policies
Clients must arrive on time for their session. Late arrivals may result in reduced shooting time.
If a client is more than 30 minutes late, the session may be cancelled without a refund.
Outfit changes are allowed within the booked session time.
4. Editing & Delivery
Portrait & Lifestyle Sessions:
Standard editing (natural retouching etc.): 5-7 days
Advanced retouching (skin smoothing etc.): 7-14 days
Event Photography:
Small events (birthdays, graduations, etc.): 7-10 days
Large events (weddings, corporate functions, etc.): 2-4 weeks
Print & Product Delivery: Physical prints/canvases depend on the lab's processing time, usually 7-14 days after image selection and full payment.
5. Image Use & Copyright
I retain the copyright to all images and may use them for portfolio, website, or marketing purposes.
If you wish to keep your images private, please inform me in writing before the shoot.
Clients may use the images for personal use but may not sell or edit them without permission.
6. Print & Product Orders
All prints and canvases are ordered through a trusted professional lab.
Once an order is placed, it cannot be refunded or changed as products are custom-made.
Allow 7-14 days for print delivery.
7. Liability
While I take great care to deliver high-quality images, I am not responsible for unforeseen circumstances (e.g., technical issues, weather, or client dissatisfaction with personal appearance).
If I am unable to attend due to illness or emergency, a full refund or reschedule will be offered.
8. Agreement
By booking a session, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to these terms.
