1. We authorise the Studio to arrange the photography of our Wedding, in
accordance with the details overleaf. We understand there is a 3 working
day cooling-off period from the date of signing this contract and for any
orders placed.
2. We have received, read and understand the Studio’s price list, which has
been confirmed for our wedding, on payment of the deposit/booking fee.
We agree that payment of the initial deposit/booking fee confirms the
booking with the Studio as per the details shown in the front of this order.
3. We agree to pay the full balance at least two weeks prior to the Wedding
Day. Failure to do so gives the Studio the right to refuse to carry out the
full photographic services.
4. The booking of and any additional costs incurred for booking venues,
photography locations etc are our responsibility and may be deducted
from the photographic coverage unless paid for separately. (NB If the
photographer is required to remain after the meal, a meal should be
provided by the Bride and Groom.)
5. (a) We are satisfied that the details overleaf are correct and will confirm
the details prior to the Wedding. We agree to advise the hairdressers and
make-up artists, the hire cars and the caterers of all the relevant times,
details and locations as detailed here and to coordinate their services.
5. (b) The details & times listed form part of this agreement and we agree
to make every effort to cooperate in order for the Studio to fulfil its
contracted photographic duty. We acknowledge the Studio cannot
accept responsibility for the ‘extent’ of the photographic coverage if
these details are incorrect or if we chose not to follow the agreed to
schedule.
6. To avoid disruption to the photographic coverage and to allow the Studio
to fulfil its contracted duty, other photography by family and friends will
be at the discretion of the Studio’s photographer.
7. We accept the responsibility to contact the Studio, at least two weeks
prior to Wedding, to confirm details are correct and there are no
alterations.
8. We agree to immediately advise the Studio in writing of any alterations
in the details listed here including postponement or cancellation of the
wedding.
9. In the event of cancellation of the wedding we agree that the deposit/
booking fee will be forfeited unless in cases of genuine hardship, but
that the Studio may allow a claim towards other photography by the
Studio within twelve (12) months of the date of this order.
10. We agree the Copyright in all photographs is owned by the Studio.
We give permission to the Studio to use any image of our Wedding

for reasonable general promotional advertising for the Studio. The
usage for any other purpose is to be renegotiated between the
parties and requires specific permission.
11. We understand that these photographs are only to be used as agreed
and may not be copied or reproduced unless written approval had
been granted by the Studio.
12. The negatives/digital files remain the property of the Studio and will
be kept on file a period of five years. We recognise that materials &
technology change constantly so we need to place our required order
as soon as possible to obtain the optimum quality. We note that we
may then negotiate with the Studio for release of the Negatives/digital
files. Regarding re-ordering photographs, we also understand that:
13. (a) All orders including family and friends’ orders are to be placed
within eight weeks of viewing of the proofs, otherwise prices current at
the time of ordering will apply.
13. (b) The wedding will be considered one Order, regardless of how many
individual parties request photographs. We will be responsible for the
entire order and no partial orders will be given out until the balance of
the Order is paid.
13. (c) All orders must be accompanied by full payment unless prior
arrangement with the Studio had been made.
13. (d) Should we fail to pay and collect any order within fourteen (14) days
of notification of completion, the order shall be in default and the Studio
shall charge a default charge of 1.5% per month (18% annual rate) on
the unpaid balance (minimum monthly charge of $5.00). In addition, we
acknowledge that no future orders will be processed until the Order is
paid in full.
13. (e) All orders shall remain the property of the Studio until full payment
has been made.
13. (f) Telephone orders require written confirmation with payment before
the order can be processed.
13. (g) All reasonable freight and postage which we request, will be paid
by us.
14. The Studio has no control over the environment in which the
photographs are kept and that colour photographs, in common
sensitised material and colour dyes, have limited life expectancy when
exposed to strong and prolonged sunlight or fluorescent light sources.
Photographs will retain their colour and brilliance much longer when
displayed under better lighting conditions.
