CHRISTMAT MINI PHOTO SESSION


TERMS & CONDITIONS


Booking a photo session means that you, the Client and me, the Photographer, agree to the session receipt as sent to you via email. This legally binding contract represents the entire understanding of the requirements, schedule and payment terms of a photo session.


PAYMENTS & RETURNS

A £30 deposit is taken on booking. This secures your slot with me. This is a non-refundable deposit and should you cancel for any reason you will lose your deposit. Your £30 deposit is taken off the total amount owing for the session. 


Payment can be made by cash, bank transfer or PayPal (applicable fees apply if using Paypal). Payment must be paid by date of photo shoot at the latest. Any photos taken will not be released until payment is made. 


All photographs shall be previewed and downloaded by the Client via an online gallery. Because it is a digital file and not a physical product, unfortunately no returns can be made.


Prints, wall arts, albums, photo gifts can be purchased additionally.


If photographs are unable to be delivered (memory card error, issues outside of human error), a refund will be made or another session scheduled, including 5 extra images in Client’s gallery as compensation.


There are 2 package to be offered this year. Standard Package - £60 for 5 digital photographs of your choice. Platinum - £150 for 15 digital photographs of your choice. Extra photo outside the package - £15 each. Professional print 6x9 Lustre Paper - £2 each.



CANCELATION

To cancel or reschedule for any reason, Client must give at least 1 week notice. 


No shows are unacceptable and result in loss of my time and earnings for me and will, unfortunately, affect any future bookings with me.


Mini Photo Sessions take approximately 30 minutes and the schedule is tight in according to other Clients so any late arrival of over 10 minutes will result in a cancelation or rescheduling.


LIABILITY

The Client remains responsible for any children or adults which attend the session with them. As I use expensive equipment during my sessions, should the Client or any guest who came with the Client, break or damage any property, the Client is responsible for reimbursing the cost of replacement or repair of any equipment damaged.


To keep everyone safe the maximum amount of people that can be in my home studio in the same time is 4.


COPYRIGHT

All photographs are and shall remain the sole intellectual property of Photographer. Please do not amend, crop or change any aspect of your images. The Client has printing right on any digital photographs purchased and can upload any of the images on social media.


SESSION

The images on this site are from a large number of sessions and it is not possible to offer every pose or set up in each session. Every session is unique to each client. If a particular pose, prop or photo is wanted, the Client will discuss any requests before the day of the session.


The Photographer will make every effort to comply with requests for specific photos. However, this will be dependant on the willingness/co-operation of subjects, it may not be possible for all or any of the images requested or expected to be captured.


In the event of an unsettled baby, some requested props or poses may not be suitable and the Photographer will use alternative props or poses. Please note, not all poses and shots are guaranteed.


The Photographer will do everything she can to produce good quality images. However, if your baby or child won’t settle or co-operate resulting in little or no images taken then the Photographer cannot be held responsible. In this instance the Photographer will offer the chance to re-shoot at a time suitable for both parties.


Client must inform me on booking if anyone attending photography session suffers from any health conditions including allergies, photosensitive epilepsy, medical issues, physical difficulties and disabilities etc.


The Client is responsible for the children's safety during the photography session. The Client must therefore ensure that a responsible adult, other than the Photographer, is present at all times to supervise the children.


This years Christmas minis have 2 different set ups with different colour schemes. 

For the dark set up I would advise wearing green, red or neutral colours. Outdoor clothing is would be suitable. 

For the light set up I would advise wearing light neutral colours.

I take no responsibility if the colours decide to wear do not fit with the back drops used.


Please be aware that any shoes worn during the shoot must be clean and not worn on the way to the studio. 


DELIVERY

Up to 48 hours after the photoshoot, the client will be sent a proofing gallery of RAW images. The client will be asked to choose which photos they would like to be edited. The number of photos is dependent upon chosen package. Any extra images requested outside of package is priced at £15 per image. 


Proofing gallery is valid for 48 hours and if selection is not made by then, Photographer will choose which images to edit.


RAW / unedited images will not be released under any circumstances. 


Digital images will be delivered to the Client via an online gallery up to maximum 20 working days after the client selects their photos. 


All prints (photo prints, albums, wall arts etc) will be available to collect from 16th December 2022.


Prints and other photo purchases need to be collected by the Client. In cases where the Client wants their photo purchases to be posted - there is an extra charge of £5 (prints) or £10 (larger items such as albums, wall art etc).


The online gallery will be available to view the images or download for 2 month time from release date.
