The payments shall be made on booking your shoot session, without payment your session will not be confirmed and will be removed from the diary.

In the event that you require any additional post processing of products to be undertaken (for example, above and beyond the editing conducted as part of the service, such as in Photoshop or similar) then an additional fee will apply at a rate of £25 per hour and will be invoiced prior to any additional work being undertaken.

Time of payment is of the essence. Where sums due are not paid in full by the due date then we may, without limiting our other rights, charge interest on such sums at 3% (3 percentage points) a year above base rate from time to time in force; and interest shall accrue on a daily basis, and apply from the due date for payment until actual payment in full, whether before or after judgement.

Photographs
The Client is responsible for the collection of products from the Suppliers and the Supplier accepts no liability whatsoever for the photographs after the date of collection.

For the avoidance of any doubt, cancellations within 6 weeks of the shoot day will remain payable in full and no refunds provided.

Studio Mini Shoot Days and Group Shoot days cannot be transferred to another date.  

Postponements
We may at our absolute discretion agree to a postponement, in exceptional circumstances and provided a new date is fixed within a 6 months period of the original shoot day.

You should contact us as early as possible to communicate this requirement where a new date will be discussed to ensure availability.

In some circumstances the Supplier may be able to provide a substitute supplier for the day of the shoot. The substitute shall act as an agent for the Supplier and all communication, editing, and delivery of images will remain the responsibility of the Supplier.

If the client is not happy to proceed with the substitute supplier, then the booking will be treated as a cancellation and the normal cancellation terms shall apply.

If any additional expenses will be incurred due to the postponement, the client will be liable to pay for these, along with any cancellation fees from third parties.

Studio Mini Shoot Days and Group Shoot days cannot be transferred to another date.    Where your shoot is outside, the Supplier will suggest a wet weather plan and where this does not meet the brief, a new date will be offered.
