HEADSHOT PHOTOGRAPHY CONTRACT

1. EXCLUSIVE PHOTOGRAPHER: It is understood that no other photographer, amateur or professional, shall be allowed to photograph at the session near the Photographer while she is working due to reasons of the photographer delivering the quality of images as expected. Any breach of this agreement (including iPhone photography) can constitute a reason for non-completion of the job with no liability to the Photographer.
2. PAYMENT TERMS: A 70% retainer fee is due at the time of signing of the agreement. The remaining balance is payable in full when images are delivered to the client. No part of any order, including previews, will be delivered until payment term agreed with the client.
3. OWNERSHIP OF DIGITAL FILES: It is agreed that dual ownership of the purchased digital files will be maintained by the Client and the Photographer. Upon delivery of the digital files to the Client’s physical control, the client shall gain personal non-commercial rights to the purchased images. It is also agreed that the Photographer will have full rights to use all images for advertising purposes. The Photographer does NOT guarantee archival of the digital files past a period of six months after the session/event date and will not be held responsible if a loss occurs.
4. CANCELLATION: Upon signature, the Studio shall reserve the time and date agreed upon. Unless the Studio is able to fully replace the cancelled reservation, all sitting fees and deposits are non-refundable, even if the portrait is rescheduled or cancelled for any reason.
5. RESCHEDULING: If in the opinion of the photographer, inclement weather or other adverse conditions prevent the creation of a portrait meeting the artistic standards of the studio, the photographer may elect to use an alternate location or to reschedule the portrait.
6. FORCE MAJEURE: If Pyragraph Studio cannot perform this Contract due to fire or other casualties, strike, an act of God, or other cause beyond the control of the parties, or due to Photographer’s illness or emergency, then the Photographer shall return any deposit or sitting fee to the Client but shall have no further liability with respect to the Contract. This limitation on liability shall also apply in the event that photographic materials are damaged in processing, lost through camera or media malfunction, lost in the mail, or otherwise lost or damaged without fault on the part of the Photographer. In the event the Photographer fails to perform for any other reason, the Studio/Photographer shall not be liable for any amount in excess of the retail value of the Client’s order.
7. PRICING: The charges in this Contract are based on the Studio’s/Photographer’s Standard Price List. This price list is adjusted periodically and future orders shall be charged at the prices in effect at the time when the order is placed.
8. EMPLOYMENT: This contract is not to be construed as an employment agreement in any way. The Photographer functions as an independent contractor.
9. MODIFICATIONS: This Contract incorporates the entire understanding of the parties. Any modifications of this Contract must be in writing and signed by both parties.
10. ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE: This Agreement may be signed via electronic means, which will be fully binding as an original signature.
