 The copyright and all other rights in the Photos shall be retained by LIVA STUDIO PHOTOGRAPHY . 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 or modification of any images will constitute a breach of copyright. This includes making copies or ‘screen shots’ of images shared by the photographer online.

 

 Sometimes the photographer may share previews or “sneak peeks” of your images, or give you access to an online gallery of images. These images must not be copied, screen shot, downloaded, edited or altered in any way.

 If you wish to share photographs to your own network (i.e. Facebook, blog or any other online channels) you agree to do so only once you have purchased and paid for them.

HEALTH

 If you are taken ill by an infectious disease, you must let me know and rearrange your session until you are fully recovered and no longer contagious. This is to protect the health of all my clients, who often include newborns.

 Please inform me on booking if you or anyone attending your photography session suffers from any health conditions including allergies, photosensitive epilepsy, medical issues, physical difficulties and disabilities etc.

 The price for your photo shoot session will be as agreed at the time of booking. Booking your session by paying your session fee guarantees  that you receive my current portrait rates. Sessions rescheduled by the client are subject to the prices current at the time of rescheduling.
Prices on the website or on marketing materials may be out of date, and I reserve the right to adjust prices at any time without prior notice. All prices are in £ .The balance is to be paid in full  before any prints, albums or other products are ordered on your behalf. Payment can be made by Bank Transfer or cash.

1. Additional photos  can be purchased at a rate of £20 per photo.
2. Omitting elements from a package does not reduce the final price.
3. A session date is secured upon the non-refundable deposit of £50 within 48 hours. After this period, the date will be released.
4.The remaining balance is due on the day of the session in cash or via bank transfer.
5. Any graphical requests, e.g., extending hair length, face swapping or pasting other people into the photo , constitute a graphic service, not a photographic one. Graphic services are individually priced and may be declined by the photographer.

Being able to share the photographs I capture is an essential part of running a photography business – after all, seeing my work is usually one of the main reasons clients book me!
