Suitability
Each mini photo session is designed for between 1 – 3 siblings and an individual family photo if desired. Babies should ideally be able to sit unaided unless you or an older sibling are happy to also be in the photo for support.

Timing
Sessions are short and mini! Please arrive on time to ensure that you receive the full time allowed for your session. Please DO NOT arrive before your session as this may disrupt the previous clients photoshoot.

Styling & Images
Props similar to those seen in the advertisement are provided. Some clothing will be available but not guaranteed for each size so to avoid disappointment please bring suitable clothes for your child.

The Photographer will select 5 images to edit from the session. The photographer’s judgment regarding which images to edit shall be deemed correct. Images will be fully hand edited and finished in line with the style seen in the advert on the photographers website and social media applications. No pose or expression can be guaranteed as every child is different. Clients will receive 5 files via digital download within 2 weeks of your session. Unedited files will not be available. If the client has purchased a fantasy image this will be provided in addition to the 5 images.

Payment
Payment and acceptance of these terms and conditions is required to complete your booking. This secures your mini shoot date and time and is nonrefundable in the event of cancellation, it being the agreed loss suffered by the photographer due to cancellation. Discounts are not eligible to be redeemed against mini sessions due to the already discounted price.

Cancellation
The Client may cancel this contract at any time by giving written notice to The Photographer but in doing so shall forfeit any monies paid. If the client needs to change the date of a photo shoot once
agreed then any new date or time will be subject to the Photographer’s availability.

The client is allowed to transfer the booking to another family however the session itself must not change in type, date or time.

Responsibilities
The photographer will always use the highest standard of care when working with the client’s children but responsibility for their child/ren will remain with the client at all times.

Behind the Scenes photography
Clients are not permitted to bring camera equipment to the photo session and any behind the scenes photos must be taken with the explicit consent of the photographer at all times. Furthermore, images taken in this way must be shared with the photographer only and are not permitted in the public domain without the photographers written consent.

Force Majeure or Act of God
The due performance of this contract is subject to alteration or cancellation by either party owing to any cause beyond their control. Although all equipment is checked regularly and reasonable steps are taken
to ensure backup equipment is available, the photographer will not be responsible for photographs that are not produced due to technical failure.

Attendance
In the unlikely event of the Photographer being unable to attend the photo shoot due to unforeseen circumstances, they will initially try to reschedule the session for the earliest possible date but reserve the
right to cancel the session and refund your booking fee in full.

Photography (the “Photographer”). The Photographer asserts the right to be credited as the author of the Photos in accordance with sections 77 and 78 of Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. Any unauthorised reproduction of any Photos will constitute a breach of copyright and legal action will be taken.
