TERMS
AND CONDITIONS
1.
By paying a deposit you agree that the terms set out below are the total
agreement made between the parties and that no variation or modification
of this contract shall be effective unless agreed by both parties in writing.
2.
Special Requests / Coverage
The
client understands and accepts that the photographic coverage will be
as the photographer's professional expertise determines and that no one
photograph will be deemed more important than another. Special requests
are not binding instruction, although every effort is made to comply with
the client's wishes.
3.
Any special requests not notified on this booking form must be made by
the client to the photographer/s in writing.
4.
The Photographer
On occasions and without notice it may be necessary for the photographer
originally specified to be substituted by another photographer (e.g. due
to ill health).
5.
Images
All image sizes are nominal. The photographer/s will provide a pleasing
colour balance but cannot guarantee exact colour matching owing to anomalous
reflectance caused by a combination of certain dyes and materials especially
man-made fibres. It is sometimes impossible to record on film exact colours
as seen by the human eye.
6.
Retouching
Retouching, digital manipulation and artist finishing is available to
the client as an optional extra.
7.
Copyright
Any images or copies of images whether stored digitally or otherwise and
any computer program including any source or object code, computer files
or printed documentation relating to such images are protected by the
Copyright and Design Act 1988. It is contrary to the act to copy or allow
to be copied photographically / electronically or by any other means an
image created as part of this contract without the permission of the photographer/s
in writing. If the master discs are purchased this gives the client license
to reproduce images but they cannot be re-sold or exhibited on websites
etc.. It is the bride and groom's responsibility to inform relatives/guests
if they intend to provide prints to guests, as re-print orders placed/paid
for cannot be refunded
8. Licence
The photographer/s shall be granted complete artistic licence including
in relation to the poses photographed and the locations used. The photographer/s
judgment regarding the locations/poses and number of images taken shall
be final. Due to the vagaries of weather and the willingness of subjects
it may not be possible to capture all the images requested.
9. Force Majeure or Act of God
The due performance of this contract is subject to alteration or cancellation
by either party owing to any cause beyond their control.
10. Previews
Although the photographer will do his best to produce more proofs/preview
prints than set out in the brochure as discussed with the client, there
is no guarantee that any number of proofs/preview prints will be produced.
If a Wedding Book is ordered a proof is offered to the client. Up to 2
minor changes are free of charge, but any more changes required over this
may be subject to a £50 design fee at the discretion of the photographer.
11.
Display
The client hereby allows the photographer/s to display any images included
in this contract in their studios, portfolios, literature, wedding exhibitions
and advertising. No use of the images will be made by the photographer/s
for other commercial reason except with the written permission of the
client.
12.
Cancellation
The client may cancel this contract at any time by giving written notice
to the photographer/s but in doing so shall forfeit any monies paid. Should
cancellation be received by the photographer/s less than 8 weeks prior
to the date of the ceremony the client shall in addition pay a sum equal
to the remaining contract value. The said sum shall be payable as compensation
as an estimate of the loss the photographer/s would suffer.
13.
Limitation of Liability
In the unlikely event of a total photographic failure or cancellation
of this contract by either party or in any circumstances the liability
of one party to the other shall be limited to the total value of the contract.
Neither party shall be liable for indirect or consequential loss.
