Terms and Conditions
It is agreed that the following terms set out 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.
Booking Fee
The Booking fee secures the time and services of the Photographer for the sitting and is non-refundable or
transferable in the event of cancellation, it being the agreed loss suffered by the photographer due to
cancellation. Sittings that are postponed to a later date will retain the fee as long as the photographer can
re-schedule for the new date and time. Cancellations made within 48 hours or less of the scheduled appointment will forfeit any fees paid and a $50 cancellation fee will be rendered.
Payments
Following payment of the booking fee, balance of any fees due are to be paid on, or before the date of
the sitting. No photographs will be delivered until all payments due have been paid in full. Payment for
additional images and albums is to be made when they are ordered.
Display
The Photographer/s may display any photographs included in this contract in his/her studio, web site,
portfolio, literature, display areas, exhibitions, competitions, advertising or slide shows.
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 or digitally the
exact colour as seen by the human eye.
Retouching
All images will be adjusted for exposure, brightness, contrast, sharpness, etc. The Photographer's judgement
regarding these corrections and the number of images put forward to the Client for preview shall be
deemed correct. Retouching, digital manipulation and artist finishing is available to the Client
as an option at an extra cost of $100 per image.
Reorders
All reorders shall be treated as an extension of this contract and no responsibility for error will be accepted
unless orders are given in writing and acknowledged in writing.
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.
Licence
The Photographer/s shall be granted artistic licence in relation to the poses photographed and any
locations used. The Photographers judgement regarding the locations/poses and number of images taken
shall be deemed correct.
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.
