TERMS
It is mutually agreed that the following terms and conditions form an integral part of this contract/invoice and that no variation or modification of this contract shall be effective unless accepted by Kazooieloki Photography Photography (also called “the Photographer”) in writing.
PAYMENTS
The balance of the payment for the services contracted for must be paid for at the latest 2 months before the wedding date. Payment for additional photographs and albums is made when these are ordered. Any bank charges incurred due to returned cheques will be debited to the Client.
CANCELLATION
In the event of the Client cancelling a booking for wedding photography Kazooieloki Photography reserves the right to charge a cancellation fee in accordance with the following scale:
The Booking Fee, if cancelled more than 12 months prior to the wedding date.
30% of the agreed fee if cancelled between six and twelve months prior to the wedding date.
50% of the agreed fee if cancelled less than 6 months prior to the wedding date.
100% of the agreed fee if cancelled within 3 months of the wedding date.
Should the cancelled wedding turn out to be a postponement, then subject to availability on a new date, monies other than the booking fee may be applied to the new wedding. In the event of Kazooieloki Photography having to cancel photographing the wedding, due to illness, accident or act of God, any fees paid, including the deposit, will be returned to the Client. In this instance Kazooieloki Photography will also do their utmost to provide an alternative photographer from their list of professional contacts.
WEATHER AND/OR DELAYS
Weather permitting, the photographs will be taken as agreed. In the event of inclement weather the photographer, in co-operation with the Client, will make the necessary changes to the schedule and will do their best to produce coverage of the wedding within the time allocated to us. Similarly, when delays occur due to circumstances outside our control, the photographer will stay on beyond the agreed time but may charge a small additional fee for extra time involved.
REQUESTED PHOTOGRAPHS
Kazooieloki Photography will honour requests for specific photographs subject to the following: weather and time permitting; availability and the co-operation of the person(s) concerned.
COVERAGE
Kazooieloki Photography cannot be held responsible for the lack of coverage caused by the bride, bridegroom or other members of the wedding party not being ready on time, nor by restrictions placed on the photographer by officials of the church, register office or licenced marriage venues. Kazooieloki Photography does not guarantee any specific picture nor to include any specific background, location, props, or arrangement, although every effort will be made to interpret the Client’s wishes. Kazooieloki Photography is limited by the guidelines of the ceremony official or reception site management. The Client agrees to accept the technical results of their imposition on the photographer. Negotiation with the officials for moderation of guidelines is the Client’s responsibility. Kazooieloki Photography will offer technical recommendations only.
COLOUR MATCHING and SIZES
Owing to photochromatic anomalies caused by a combination of certain dyes and materials, especially in man-made fibres, it is sometimes impossible to record on camera the exact colour of materials as perceived by the human eye. When processing images, Kazooieloki Photography will endeavour to achieve a pleasing overall colour balance based on natural flesh tones. It is understood that some colours may not remain consistent throughout a set of photographs owing to variations in lighting conditions. It is also understood that all photographic printing is undertaken within the technical limitations of the process and that colour may not be identical over the whole range within a subject. The colour balance of prints made at different times or in varying sizes may also be variable. Due to the limitations of computer monitors it is understood that images may appear differently according to the specification of each monitor and that prints will not match images rendered on any particular computer monitor.
