Supplier of Products
The Products you purchase will be supplied by Jodie Baker Photography.
After entering into a Photography Contract with Jodie Baker Photography (Note A contract is considered when you have booked a time and date for a photographic session) we will send you an email (on the email address you supply when ordering on the Web Site) confirming details of the Products and the Contract. You will then have a “cooling off” period during which you have a right to cancel the contract without charge. You may exercise that right by notifying us by email at jodiebakerphotography@outlook.com.
NOTE The cooling off period ONLY applies to a photography photoshoot and not to the supply of any products/images/downloadable/digital products. The cooling off period to cancel a booking, is 7 days from the original date of booking and more than 10 days before the photographic shoot. As you can appreciate once you have booked with Jodie Baker Photography they are unable to service any other clients at that time.
If a booking is cancelled after this date but within 1 week (7 days prior) to the scheduled shoot then 75% payment must be made as the booked time was allocated specifically to you. If a booking is cancelled within 7 days of the scheduled booking, then full payment is required. If you are a no show on the date of booking, then full payment is required. If you are late to your scheduled/confirmed time then your photographic session time shall still end at the scheduled time. This is required, as many times other bookings will follow yours, and its important that we meet our clients expectations and arrive on time to commence their photographic session.
NOTE: There is NO cooling off period on any digital products (ie emailed images via links or otherwise). Once the email has been sent the product is considered delivered and order fully completed.
How long are images available?
Once images are handed over to the client, Jodie Baker Photography is not liable for them any longer. It is recommended by Jodie Baker Photography that you make at least one backup copy to another hard drive and or the cloud/ Dropbox. Jodie Baker Photography will endeavour to keep images on file for a period of 6 months incase the client would like to purchase prints or extra images but this is not mandatory and cannot be guaranteed. Please note that if you require another copy of your images (if they are still available) there will be a cost associated with the work undertaken to provide them to you.
If you are unhappy with anything you should contact jodiebakerphotography@outlook.com without delay.
