Overview: This agreement is the complete and final understanding between the Photographer and the Client, replacing any previous agreements. Changes can only be made in writing and must be signed by everyone involved. If one part of the agreement is waived, it does not affect the rest, and any waiver must be formally documented.

Change of Date or Venue: Notify the Photographer of any changes in schedule or location at least one week before the event, both by phone and email. Confirm all details 7-10 days prior. The Client should also reach out to the Photographer two weeks before the event to review final details.

Expenses: The Client must pay for travel costs like parking, shipping, and destination fees, which will be added to the final bill. The Client is also responsible for any location fees and permits.

Photographic Materials and Copyright: All photos, negatives, and slides are the Photographer's property. The Photographer owns the copyright and can use the images for samples, contests, exhibitions, advertising, and self-promotion. Any other use requires the Client's permission.

Social Media: When posting photos online, including on Facebook and blogs, the Client must credit the Photographer. Photos must not be altered or edited in any way, except for Facebook’s Timeline cropping. The Client is also responsible for ensuring that family and friends follow these rules.

Liability: The Client is responsible for supervising children. ARKIV is not liable for any accidents involving children or damage to property during the photo shoot or consultation.

Photographs and Editing: The Client agrees that all photos will be taken and edited according to the Photographer’s experience and artistic judgment. If the Client has specific requests, they should provide a “shot list” of desired photos.
