Description of Services: I provide professional photography services for various occasions including but not limited to weddings, engagements, portraits, and lifestyle/events. My services may include pre-production planning, photography on location or in studio, editing, and delivery of final images to clients.

Fees and Payment: Fees for my services vary depending on the work and the client’s specific needs. A non-refundable retainer fee of 50% of the total fee is due at the time of booking to secure the date and time of the photographs. The remaining balance is due on or before the day of the shoot. Additional expenses such as travel fees, permits, and props are the responsibility of the client and will be discussed and agreed upon prior to the shoot on a case by case basis.

Cancellation and Rescheduling: Clients may cancel or reschedule a shoot by giving notice in writing at least 30 days prior to the scheduled shoot date. The retainer fee is non-refundable in case of cancellation. If the shoot is cancelled by me due to unforeseen circumstances, such as illness or inclement weather, the retainer fee will be refunded in full or the shoot will be rescheduled at no additional cost.

Liability: I am not liable for any injury, loss, or damage to clients or their property during the photo shoot. Clients are responsible for their own safety and the safety of their property.

Governing Law: These terms and conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Ontario, Canada. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with these terms and conditions shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario.
