RESPONSIBILITIES:LMCS is not responsible for a lack of coverage due to causes beyond the control of the company (included but not limited to) obtrusive guests, lateness of the client or guests, weather conditions, schedule complications, incorrect addresses provided to the company, unsightly decor, or restrictions of location. LMCS is not liable for non-ideal lighting conditions or background sets that were there on the wedding day and chosen by the client. LMCS will however, give honest opinions of best lighting and background areas to direct the best possible photo scenes.
VENUE & PERMIT:LMCS will offer technical recommendations to the venue if inquired, and will uphold and honor the guidelines of the chosen venue or site management.
The client is responsible for acquiring all permits necessary for all locations on which LMCS will be performing services.
MODEL RELEASE:The client assigns LMCS with full rights to use and publish photos which the client may be included in, for later promotional, editorial, advertising, and social media purposes, and to edit & retain the copyrights of all photos without restriction.
CAPTURING & DELIVERY:LMCS will honor each request as best as possible to get a significant amount of photos throughout the event, but will not be held responsible for ‘missing’ any moments. The photographer uses artistic discretion to determine what will be presented in each photograph and will do their very best to be present and aware of each special moment. The photographer is given full responsibility to determine which images to release to the client.
LIMIT OF LIABILITY:In the unlikely event that the photographer is unable to perform the guidelines of this proposal/contract due to an illness, injury, or unforeseen emergency, the photographer will make every possible effort to ensure a replacement. If a replacement is not found, responsibility and liability is limited to the return of all payments received for the event. In the unlikely event that all digital files have been lost, stolen, or destroyed for reasons beyond the company’s control, including but not limited to harddrive crash or equipment malfunction, the company is fully responsible to return all payments received for the event. If however, only parts of the files have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, LMCS will prorate a partial refund based on the total number of final images and the amount of ‘lost’ images. After receiving all final images from the wedding day, the client is held responsible for maintaining a database of images for their own personal use, not the photographer.
POST PROCESSING & EDITING:All final post processing & editing styles, effects, and overall look of the images will be discussed prior to wedding day so that there are no surprises.
