In cases where the photographer’s client is a direct client (i.e. with no agency or intermediary), all references in this agreement to both “the Agency” and “the Advertiser” shall be interpreted as references to the photographer’s client. “Photographs” means all photographic material furnished by the photographer, whether transparencies, negatives, prints or any other type of physical or electronic material.

The entire copyright in the photographs is retained by the photographer at all times throughout the world. I monitor infringement of my work and will pursue claims for damages where necessary.

OWNERSHIP OF MATERIALS

Title to all photographs remains the property of the photographer.

USE

Images once supplied may not be forwarded to any 3rd parties for re-use. Images are supplied on a rolling licence, the licence only applies to the advertiser and product as stated on the front of the form and its benefit shall not be assigned to any third party without the Photographer’s permission. Images may not be re-used after the initial use without the photographer’s permission, for other purposes eg use in relation to another product, company or sub-licensing through a photo library.

EXCLUSIVITY

The agency and advertiser will be authorised to publish the photographs to the exclusion of all other persons including the photographer. However, the photographer retains the right in all cases to use the photographs in any manner at any time and in any part of the world for the purposes of advertising or otherwise promoting his/her work. The photographer shall be entitled to use the photographs for any purposes.

CLIENT CONFIDENTIALITY

The photographer will keep confidential and will not disclose to any third parties or make use of material or information communicated to him/her in confidence for the purposes of the photography, save as may be reasonably necessary to enable the photographer to carry out his obligations in relation to the commission.

INDEMNITY

The photographer agrees to indemnify the agency and the advertiser against all expenses, damages, claims and legal costs arising out of any failure by the photographer to obtain any clearances for which he/she was responsible in respect of third party copyright works, trade marks, designs or other intellectual property. The photographer shall only be responsible for obtaining such clearances if this has been expressly agreed before the shoot. In all other cases the agency shall be responsible for obtaining such clearances and will indemnify the photographer against all expenses, damages, claims and legal costs arising out of any failure to obtain such clearances.

PAYMENT

Payment by the agency will be expected for the commissioned work within 30 days of the issue of the relevant invoice. If the invoice is not paid, in full, within 30 days the photographer reserves the right to charge interest at the rate prescribed by the Late Payment of Commercial Debt (Interest) Act 1998 from the date payment was due until the date payment is made. A charge of £15 will be made for each email/fax/letter sent if invoices are not paid in full by the due date.

EXPENSES

Where extra expenses or time are incurred by the photographer as a result of alterations to the original brief by the agency or the advertiser, or otherwise at their request, the agency shall give approval to and be liable to pay such extra expenses or fees, at the photographer’s normal rate, to the photographer.

VARIATION

Q. Can you pencil us in / hold our date?

A. Unfortunately not. Your wedding date is only secure once you've paid the deposit and returned the booking form. Weddings are booked on a first-come, first-served basis.

Q. How much is the deposit?

A. £350 - This is a non-refundable deposit and is deducted from your final balance.

Q. Can we meet up before we book you?

A. Yes no problem. Happy to discuss whether face to face or over Zoom.

Q. What time do you leave on the wedding day?

A. Normally until the first dance, after which I will try and get some of the guests dancing shortly after. If you would like me to stay longer, I’m happy to discuss and tailer my service.

Q. How long do we have to wait for the photos?

A. It normally takes between 4 and 6 weeks to finish the images and get them sent to you.

Q. How far will you travel?

A. I’m happy to travel anywhere. Depending on the location, there may be extra mileage charges.

Q. Can you make an album for us?

A. Yes I can do. My albums start from £500. Again happy to discuss.

Q. Do we have to feed you?

A. Entirely up to you! I wouldn’t say no :) However no issues if not, I can bring a packed lunch

Q. We want lots of group photos, can you do that?

A. I don't mind doing a couple of close family group shots, and of course ones of you with the bridesmaids or best man/ushers, but if you're after a photographer that is going to work off a long list of group photos, then I'm definitely not the photographer for you.

Q. How do we pay the final balance?

A. The balance needs to be paid at least 4 weeks before the wedding date, and is a bank transfer to my account.

Q. Are you insured?

A. Yes. For both public liability and professional indemnity.

Q. Can we really do whatever we want with the images?

A. Yes. You've paid me to be your photographer, you've got the photos, so feel free to print them off, share them with family and friends, upload them to Facebook, or even make your own album.
