Scheduling, Cancellations, Rescheduling
If you are unable to keep your scheduled appointment, please give at least 24 hours notice for rescheduling. Cancellations or rescheduled appointments (other than those due to unforeseen weather conditions) with less than 24 hours may be subject to a €50 cancellation fee.
Weather Policy
Living in the Algarve, the weather is normally a done deal. I am normally on top of up coming weather forecasts for wherever I am plannning to be shooting and will let you know if there is any chance of unfavourable weather. However, in the event of inclement weather on the day of the shoot, you may opt to reschedule for the next vancancy I have or proceed regardless of weather conditions. In this case, please know that your images will reflect the weather conditions at the time of the shoot. If weather conditions are too severe for sensitive camera equipment (heavy rain, high winds, etc), I may, at my sole discretion, reschedule your shoot for the next available vacancy.
Property Condition & Shoot Preparation
Property Shoots are very normally scheduled “back-to-back,” with just travelling time separating them. Therefore preparation prior to my arrival will ensure you get the best photographs taken during your appointment time. It is the property owners /Managers responsibility to ensure the property is shoot ready. I may make minor adjustments to improve the shot in some situations, but I will not move furniture or make significant changes nor will I clean the property.
Please ensure that there are no hazards to my safety and that pets are confined out of view.
All images are edited, but I retouching images to disguise known defects and/or physical structures such as wall/floor blemishes, cracks, power lines may result in additional fees applied.
