Wedding Contract Terms & Conditions
Photography Coverage and Overtime
The Studio/Photographer may substitute another photographer to take the photographs in the event of Photographer’s illness or other emergency. In the event of such substitution, the Studio warrants that the photographer taking the photographs shall be a competent professional.
The Studio/Photographer will begin their coverage at the designated time on this contract. The Photographer(s) will only be required to provide wedding coverage for the specific hours marked on this contract that reflects the wedding package purchased.
It is the client’s responsibility to make sure that any events that they would like to be photographed are completed within the time frame starting from the Photographer’s arrival time marked on this contract. In the event that the timing of the wedding day is interfered with by anything such as make-up/hair, any person involved in the wedding being late or not present to take pictures, or any other cause that arises, the client understands that they will be missing out on key photos that the studio could have taken.
If any of the timing is affected for these reasons or any other reasons, the Studio/Photographer will not be responsible for missed photographs and will not guarantee the number of photographic images as ordered in the Client’s package. The client also understands that the agreed-upon schedule between the studio and client for each aspect of the day is the only time for those certain pictures to be taken.
The Studio or Photographer asks that no other person (professional or amateur) will be taking pictures during our entire coverage. This includes, but is not limited to, other wedding vendors such as wedding coordinators, videographers, and D.J.’s. This interferes with our timing and exposure, and this may affect the outcome of your wedding coverage.
In the event that a person or persons interferes with this clause, a warning will be given to the client. If the problem persists, our coverage will end immediately with no further liability to finish the coverage or deliver the package components, and no type of refund will be offered.
