Terms of Service

1. Booking & Retainer

A signed contract and non-refundable retainer (typically 25% of the total session fee) are required to secure your date. Your date is not held until both are received. The retainer is applied toward your total balance.

2. Payment

The remaining balance is due no later than 7 days prior to your session date. For weddings, the balance is due 14 days before the event. Payments may be made via bank transfer, credit card, or approved digital payment methods.

3. Cancellation & Rescheduling

Cancellations made more than 30 days before the session date forfeit the retainer only. Cancellations within 30 days forfeit the full session fee. Rescheduling is permitted once at no charge, subject to availability, with at least 14 days notice.

4. Delivery

Edited images are delivered via private online gallery within 3–4 weeks for portraits and 6–8 weeks for weddings. Rush delivery may be available for an additional fee. RAW files are not included or released.

5. Copyright & Usage

Anchor and Coastal LLC retains full copyright of all images. Clients receive a personal use license to print and share images for non-commercial purposes. Commercial licensing is available separately. Credit is appreciated but not required for personal sharing.

6. Limitation of Liability

In the unlikely event of equipment failure, accident, or circumstances beyond our control, liability is limited to a refund of fees paid. We are not responsible for indirect or consequential damages.

7. Agreement

By booking a session you agree to these terms. A formal contract will be provided and must be signed before your session is confirmed.
