TERMS

Walk-Throughs, Rehearsals, and Other Pre-Event Meetings

Pre-wedding planning engagements of any type must be specifically requested prior to booking or reserved no less than three (3) weeks prior to the EVENT in order to ensure the availability and attendance of the photographer and/or videographer. The fee for such additional pre-EVENT services is separate from any EVENT services and is billed at a flat hourly rate of $100.00.

Production Schedule

At least 4 weeks before the EVENT, the AGENCY will direct an email to the CLIENT outlining the details of the EVENT as provided to us for confirmation of all relevant information. This email will serve as the official production plan for the EVENT. When the CLIENT confirms the production schedule for the EVENT, the CLIENT will have an opportunity to correct, change, revise, or edit any information which had been provided to AGENCY previously. If the CLIENT is unable to provide specific information in regard to any portion of the EVENT, then whatever information is available and accurate to the best of the CLIENT’S knowledge, will be sufficient. AGENCY will attempt to accommodate all requests to the best of its capability. Due to the nature of live events, requests or plans that appear reasonable before the EVENT may turn out impractical or impossible to complete. The AGENCY appreciates your understanding and cooperation regarding this eventuality.

Contingency Date/s

  1. “CLIENT-insured contingency date(s)” will include any additional/contingency day(s) for the EVENT that is/are reserved by the CLIENT in addition to the EVENT date. CLIENT shall authorize the reservation of such additional day(s) with an additional payment to AGENCY, as determined by AGENCY in advance. The CLIENT may select at least one possible contingency date for the EVENT, the separate cost for reservation of each contingency date shall be approved and paid for before the EVENT by the CLIENT.

  2. In the event a contingency date becomes necessary to implement for the EVENT, then AGENCY shall permit the CLIENT to reschedule the photography and/or videography services to a contingency date of CLIENT’S choice, or if the CLIENT chooses not to reschedule and terminate this AGREEMENT, then the AGENCY will fully refund only the second installment within fourteen (14) days of written notification by CLIENT that it has elected not to reschedule the EVENT.

  3. In the event of the CLIENT’S failure to reschedule to a properly reserved contingency date, the first installment paid to AGENCY will not be refundable under any circumstances and will be forfeited by CLIENT to compensate AGENCY for its administrative, scheduling, time, labor, travel, communication, and any other costs and/or expenses expended in pursuit of fulfilling its obligations to CLIENT as herein agreed.

Drone Use Policy

Utilization by AGENCY of aerial drone wedding coverage is subject to availability and conditions at the EVENT. Use of aerial drones must comply with all relevant local rules and laws, is subject to weather conditions, and will depend on the ability of the aerial drone operator to utilize the drone safely concerning the EVENT’s physical surroundings and be mindful of the wellbeing of the EVENT attendees. Utilization and operation of an aerial drone shall occur at the sole discretion of the aerial drone operator, without any liability accruing to AGENCY in the event a drone cannot be utilized for any reason. In the event an aerial drone cannot be utilized at the EVENT, such an occurrence will not be deemed to be a breach of any agreement(s) between CLIENT and AGENCY; however, the CLIENT shall receive a full refund of the amount specifically paid to AGENCY for the use of a such aerial drone, with no right accruing to CLIENT to receive or demand any amount greater than such specific payment as paid to AGENCY for the use of the aerial drone. CLIENT shall have full and sole responsibility for obtaining and paying for all necessary permits, consents, and clearances for the operation of any aerial drone(s) at the EVENT.

In no circumstance will AGENCY be liable in any amount (to include indirect, special, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary, enhanced or similar damages), save for gross negligence or intentional misconduct directly attributed to AGENCY or its agent(s), for any damages or physical injury that may occur as a result of the operation of an aerial drone at the EVENT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitation of all damages payable to CLIENT by AGENCY as a result of aerial drone operation will be the amount paid by CLIENT to AGENCY for the use of such aerial drone at the

EVENT. CLIENT hereby releases AGENCY and accepts full liability, and shall hold- harmless and shall indemnify AGENCY if any damages or physical injury occurs at the EVENT through no fault of the AGENCY or its agent(s).

Payment Policy

CLIENT shall make payment in two installments: First Installment: The first installment of 50% (Fifty Percent) of the agreed upon total price for the AGENCY’S services will initiate the reservation of the AGENCY for the EVENT to be placed, and this AGREEMENT to be executed by both parties. This initial deposit must be tendered by the CLIENT along with this signed AGREEMENT.

Second Installment: The entire remaining balance is due and payable no less than then (10) days before the EVENT.

CLIENT hereby agrees and understands that the forfeit of such first installment will serve as liquidated damages to compensate AGENCY for the costs of administration, preparation, and initiation of the process of providing the services agreed upon between CLIENT and AGENCY. CLIENT agrees that this provision regarding liquidated damages is fair and reasonable compensation for the time, effort, and expenditures undertaken by AGENCY on behalf of the CLIENT, with the aim of providing photography and videography services for the EVENT. In the event of a CLIENT-initiated cancellation, the CLIENT’S second installment will be refunded in full within fourteen (14) days of written notification provided to AGENCY by CLIENT.

If the new EVENT date is not available for the AGENCY to provide the agreed upon services, then the initial deposit will remain non-refundable, and the remainder of any payment(s) made by CLIENT will be refunded in full within fourteen (14) days of written notification from AGENCY that the new EVENT date provided by CLIENT will not be available to provide the agreed upon services to CLIENT.

If CLIENT fails to provide essential or material information regarding the EVENT prior to the EVENT (Including but not limited to lighting conditions, venue requirements, location matters, travel itinerary, etc.), and such failure affects the ability of the photographer and/or videographer to fulfill the services agreed upon with the CLIENT, then AGENCY reserves the sole right and discretion to terminate its services effective immediately, without liability or fault for such termination, and will retain the first installment/deposit previously paid by CLIENT per the terms of this AGREEMENT. In the event of such termination of the AGENCY’S services, the AGENCY shall provide written notice of the termination to CLIENT within fourteen (14) days after the EVENT

Pre-Edit Form

Upon consent to this AGREEMENT, the CLIENT will provide as much information as possible regarding the first edit. The AGENCY is generally able to accomplish most such requests and instructions; however, at times this may be impossible. AGENCY will use its best efforts to edit the EVENT footage in accordance with the wishes and directions of the CLIENT. CLIENT should make all song choices available to AGENCY prior to the EVENT. The number of song selections should correspond to the number of songs CLIENT will receive in the edited package (one song for a one-song edit).

Editing

  1. The editing process will take 8/9 weeks once AGENCY receives the music and PRE- EDIT FORM from CLIENT. This is an estimate and may be shorter or longer depending on the CLIENT’S particular circumstances.

  2. Once the initial editing process is completed, CLIENT will be able to review each segment and provide approval. If CLIENT notes any additional editing to be performed by AGENCY (not including requests AGENCY was not able to achieve for reasons out of its control or elected against based on artistic judgment), CLIENT may request one (1) free round of edits/revisions of all issues noted in CLIENT’S review of the first edit, no more than thirty (30) days after the first edit is delivered to CLIENT. The free round of edits/revisions doesn’t cover change of background music. If CLIENT fails to provide AGENCY with a list of all requested edits/revisions of the first edit during this time frame, then CLIENT shall forfeit its right to the free round of edits/revisions and will be required to pay the hourly rate stated herein below for any edits/revisions.

  3. AGENCY will use its best efforts to make all requested corrections, revisions, and changes to the first edit, to the best of its ability. If CLIENT requests to have additional creative or discretionary changes made to the edit, CLIENT shall be required to pay for additional editing at the hourly rate of $100 per hour. AGENCY will provide CLIENT with a price quote, scope of work, and invoice for the total amount of all paid edits/revisions, as requested by CLIENT, and CLIENT shall be required to pay such invoice in full, before any such paid work is performed by AGENCY.

  4. When CLIENT approves, then AGENCY shall create the final product as selected in the contract and deliver it to CLIENT. If there are no response from CLIENT within thirty (30) days after delivery of the first edit to CLIENT, AGENCY may proceed with the finalization of the project and delivery of the final product to CLIENT.

Final Product

  1. AGENCY’S main contribution is unique and creative editing. We fully take CLIENT requests into consideration and edit the footage as we feel works best creatively and with the purpose in mind of creating a memorable product for CLIENTS’ special occasions.

  2. The raw footage is the material used to create CLIENT’S edited film, it is in its unpolished state and not refined as is the edited product. AGENCY will create the film based on CLIENT’S input; however, ultimately AGENCY reserves the right to have the final creative oversight of the resulting product. The total running time of the final product will vary and will depend on the amount and length of footage produced at the EVENT. The planning of the final product is a generalized description of what the final product will be like. Since each EVENT is different, each wedding video will be different as well. AGENCY retains the right to use an artistic license to change and create/produce the best final product possible in the sole discretion of the AGENCY. The final product is, in many cases, subject to variations from the initial plan due to unpredictable eventualities.

Copyrights

  1. All original footage remains the sole property of the AGENCY. AGENCY owns, and CLIENT hereby assigns to AGENCY, all copyrights, and proprietary rights in all footage taken by AGENCY or its authorized agents, which will have the exclusive right to license to others the right to produce, copy, make, sublicense or sell such footage in its sole discretion. AGENCY grants CLIENT a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the original footage and edits without the express written permission of the AGENCY. AGENCY may use footage and edited material from the original footage to market AGENCY’S services, publicly display, and share the original footage and the edited material for any purpose whatsoever.

  2. CLIENT shall not sell, grant sub-licenses, or distribute the original footage or the edited materials for profit without the prior express written approval of AGENCY.

  3. The CLIENT shall bear the sole responsibility and expense for obtaining proper licensing and permissions for all copyrighted music used in the EVENT footage. In no event will AGENCY be liable for any licenses or permissions for any copyrighted music used in CLIENT’S video edits. CLIENT understands that by choosing any copyrighted songs as background music for the wedding video CLIENT may be liable to 3rd parties under the applicable copyright law(s) and shall reimburse AGENCY for any costs or expenses, including legal fees, incurred as a result of any copyright violations caused by CLIENT’S failure to obtain the proper licensing and permissions to use any music whatsoever.

Raw Footage

Raw footage is generally filmed in digital format unless 8MM or 16MM film is specifically requested well in advance of the EVENT. The raw footage consists of all photos, video, and audio recorded by the AGENCY or its authorized agent(s), when on location. Raw footage will be transferred to the CLIENT through an email containing a download link. It is the CLIENT’S responsibility to take possession of the raw footage within 15 days of receiving the such link. Agency will provide the option for the CLIENT to take delivery of the final product and the RAW Footage on a hard drive for a flat fee of $200. AGENCY does not keep raw footage infinitely and reserves the right to delete all such footage after a given project’s completion.

Severability

The AGENCY is a Delaware Limited Liability Company and this AGREEMENT is entirely governed by the laws of Delaware, without regard for conflict of laws rules. All disputes are to be resolved in Delaware courts of proper jurisdiction over such matters at a venue selected by AGENCY. If litigation results from or arises out of this AGREEMENT or the performance thereof, the parties hereto agree to reimburse the prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and all other expenses, whether or not taxable by the court as costs, in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled.

Severability

Whenever possible, each provision of this AGREEMENT will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this AGREEMENT is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this AGREEMENT will be reformed, construed, and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provisions had never been contained herein.

Non-Solicitation

During the EVENT and for one (1) year thereafter, the CLIENT shall not solicit for any reason, any of the AGENCY’S contractors, employees, agents, staff, or representatives, directly or indirectly. In the event CLIENT breaches this provision, it is understood that the AGENCY will suffer irreparable damages in monetary and non-monetary ways. If CLIENT breaches this provision, AGENCY shall reserve the right to seek injunctive relief and monetary damages in a court of competent jurisdiction, with all costs of such relief, including attorney’s fees, borne by CLIENT.
