4. Re-shoots / Refunds
Re-shoots are determined at the discretion of the photographer. Re-shoots and refunds will not be given for poor choices of clothing, make-up, hair or weather related issues, or by not following the recommendations of the photographer. Should you have a problem with your images please notify the photographer following viewing of your online gallery. Once digital images have been received by the client no refunds or reshoots will be issued. The photographer does not keep any photo in archive the client did not buy.
5. Payment
All payments are due in full unless payment arrangements have been made. Orders will not commence editing until payment in full is received. If client has arranged a payment plan, order will be placed after the final payment has been received.
6. Damage
Photographer is not responsible for the damage of portraits after delivery to client. Client assumes all responsibility for the safety of all portraits upon receipt.
7. Client Cooperation
Should any client including siblings fail to cooperate with posing then those shots will be ceased for the safety of your newborn child. I will make numerous attempts to get the shot but if it's not working and your older child is distressed or not cooperating we move on and try again later if time allows.
