Terms and Conditions

This agreement is between VISION ADDICT LLC (“Studio”) and the undersigned client (“Client”). It supersedes all prior arrangements. VISION ADDICT LLC is the exclusive photographer/videographer retained to perform the services described in this contract.

RESERVATION

A signed agreement and a non-refundable 50% retainer are required to secure a session. Once booked, the date and time are reserved exclusively for the Client and no other bookings will be accepted. The retainer is non-refundable, even if the session is rescheduled or cancelled for any reason.

PAYMENT POLICY

All remaining balances must be paid immediately after the service via cash, Zelle, or credit card. Bank or processing fees are the responsibility of the Client. The Studio will not release images or video content until the balance is paid in full.

BALANCE

The retainer is applied toward the contracted photography/videography service. Payment is required on the day of the shoot at its completion. Invoices serve as receipts for work performed and services rendered. No digital files, photos, or videos will be delivered until full payment is received.

COOPERATION / TARDINESS / NO-SHOWS

VISION ADDICT LLC is not responsible for missed images or video due to lack of cooperation, failure to appear, or incomplete communication. A 15-minute grace period is permitted. Failure to arrive within 15 minutes of the scheduled start time may result in cancellation, and the session fee is forfeited.

RESCHEDULING / CANCELLATION

Clients may reschedule one time with a minimum of 7 days written notice without additional fees. Rescheduling less than 7 days (but more than 48 hours) before the session incurs a $30 rescheduling fee. Cancellations or rescheduling within 48 hours of the session are considered a no-show and all fees are forfeited.

VISION ADDICT LLC may reschedule sessions due to illness, emergency, or inclement weather. Rescheduling due to weather is at the Studio’s discretion. If the Client cancels, they remain responsible for all pre-approved expenses incurred by the Studio.

DELIVERY / DIGITAL FILES

Proof images are delivered unedited via an online gallery within the timeframe listed in the package. The Client selects the number of images included in the package for editing. Additional image selections must be purchased separately.

Final edited images and/or videos are delivered digitally in high resolution and web-optimized formats. The Client has 14 days to download and store their files. VISION ADDICT LLC does not offer permanent storage or archiving. Backup gallery requests (if available) are subject to a $100 restoration fee.

COPYRIGHTS & USAGE

All photographs and videos remain the intellectual property of VISION ADDICT LLC and are protected by Federal Copyright Law. Clients receive a limited license for personal use and social media display. Commercial use, advertising, branding, or resale of the images requires a separate commercial license.

Edited images and videos may not be altered, re-edited, filtered, or manipulated without the Studio’s written consent. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by VISION ADDICT LLC.

TRAVEL

One location within a 15-mile radius of VISION ADDICT LLC is included. Locations outside this radius incur travel fees at the Studio’s current rate. Permit or location fees are the Client’s responsibility.

MODEL RELEASE

The Client grants VISION ADDICT LLC permission to use photographs and/or video featuring the Client or participants for portfolio, website, promotional materials, social media, and studio advertising. If the Client requires full privacy or wishes to limit usage, a private-session fee or written release exception may be requested.
