If after a make up Session is booked and Subject misses the make up Session, then Client forfeits the fee paid for the original Booking.

• Session Duration

A Session duration is a length of time given to an individual Subject’s photography Session.  The duration can vary based on the type of Booking Client makes. When Booking through the Booking Site, all Bookings are an hour long.  If the Booking is for one Subject, the duration will be an hour. If however, the Booking involves multiple Subjects, the duration will be calculated by dividing sixty minutes or an hour by the number of Subjects in the Session.  This will determine the duration for each Subject’s individual Session. Client understands and acknowledges how Subject’s Session duration is determined and all Subjects will be prepared to be photographed within their Session Duration on the day of the shoot.

• Shooting Space

Client attests that the shooting space within the Shooting Location specified in the booking will be at least 5 feet wide by 20 feet long.  While Photographer may not utilize all of the square footage, not having the space may prevent Photographer from fulfilling its duties and achieving the results Client expects based on Enhancement selection.  Photographer will not be liable if the Photographer cannot achieve the results Client expects due to shortage of space.

• Session Length

Photographer’s purpose is to provide the Services Client has paid for.  Photographer will be available for the length of the Booking time in order to fulfill its duties.  In the event Subject is satisfied with the end product before the Session time ends, Photographer will end the Session early.  Should the goal of the Session be met before Session time expires, Client understands that the remaining time cannot be used for any other type of shoot.  Other Subjects may be accommodated if time permits. Please see New Subject section.

• New Subject

Sessions sometimes end early or take longer than expected.  In the event that all Subjects scheduled to be photographed have completed their individual Sessions and time still remains before the Booking time expires, new Subjects, who happened to be on-location but were not scheduled to be photographed may be photographed.  This can only happen if a new Booking is made and paid for on-location and if sufficient time remains from the first Session or if Photographer can remain on-location to accommodate a second Session.

• Group Sessions

Client agrees that every Subject being photographed as part of a Group will be present on Shooting Location at Booking time.  Photographer will not be liable if Subject misses its individual Session or arrives late and cannot be photographed.
