AGREEMENT. This agreement between the ‘Client’ and ‘Photographer’ governs the assignment described in the photography agreement. Alongside these ‘terms and conditions’, this constitutes the entire agreement between the parties concerning that assignment. No variation or modification of this agreement shall be effective unless both parties agree.

PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGE. The fees quoted by Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio are for the original assignment as presented by the Client. Any subsequent changes, whether verbally or in writing, may result in additional charges which will be invoiced accordingly.

COVERAGE. The Client understands and accepts that the photographic coverage will be as Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio professional expertise determines. Special requests are not binding instructions, although every effort is made to comply with the Client’s wishes. Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio shall be granted complete artistic licence regarding the poses (candid or otherwise), the location and the number of images taken and edited. Due to the vagaries of the weather and the willingness of subjects, it may not be possible to capture all of the images requested. Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio will do their best to produce more images than discussed with the Client, although there is no guarantee that any particular number of images will be produced.

CANCELLATION OR POSTPONEMENT. The Client may cancel this agreement at any time by giving written or verbal notice to Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio, but in doing so shall forfeit any monies already paid. If a short term postponement by the Client is necessary, all reasonable steps shall be taken by Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio to re-schedule for another date.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. In the unlikely event that the photographer Vanessa Palmer-Vines is injured or becomes ill, or has an extreme emergency that prevents her from undertaking the assignment, responsibility and liability is limited to the return of any payments made by the Client. The Client can be assured that the utmost care will be taken with respect to the digital files and edited images. However, in the unlikely event of total photographic failure, or that photographs have been lost, stolen, or destroyed for reasons within or beyond the control of Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio, the liability is limited to the return of all payments already received for the photography package agreed. Neither party shall be liable for indirect or consequential loss.

COPYRIGHT. Any images or copies of images whether stored digitally or otherwise, or printed documentation relating to such images are protected by the Copyright, Design and Patents Act 1988 and are the property of Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio. All images produced come with a full copyright-free licence for use by the Client over an unlimited period. The Client must obtain written permission from and compensate Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio prior to the Client or their associates selling the images for profit. The Client hereby allows Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio the irrevocable and unrestricted right to use, display and publish any images from the assignment for publicity and portfolio purposes whether in print or online. The Client also releases Vanessa Palmer-Vines Studio from all claims and liability relating to said photographs.
