Bay Area Headshot Photographer
Step 1 of 2
This Photography Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the date of the latest signature below (the “Effective Date”), by and between:
Photographer: Adam Rubinstein (“Photographer”)
Photographer agrees to provide professional headshot and/or portrait photography services to Client at date and time to be agreed up on by all parties.
The total session fee is $250.00 USD, which includes:
A non-refundable deposit of $150.00 USD is required to secure the session date and time. This deposit will be applied toward the total session fee.
The remaining balance of $100.00 USD is due on or before the session date.
Final, fully edited high-resolution digital image files may be purchased at $200.00 USD per image. Packages or bulk pricing (if applicable) may be discussed separately.
Payment may be made through the payment system at https://www.stoppeddown.studio, processed by Stripe.
Client must provide at least 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule the session. If such notice is provided, the deposit may be transferred to a future session or refunded upon request. Failure to provide 48 hours’ notice will result in forfeiture of the deposit.
If Photographer must cancel or reschedule due to illness, emergency, or unforeseen circumstances, Client may choose to reschedule or receive a full refund of all fees paid, including the deposit.
Photographer will deliver an online gallery of proof images within seven (7) calendar days following the session.
Once Client selects and pays for desired images, final edited digital files will be delivered within seven (7) calendar days via digital download.
Photographer retains full copyright and intellectual property rights to all images created.
Upon full payment for selected images, Client is granted a non-exclusive, perpetual license to use those images for personal and professional (e.g. website, LinkedIn, marketing) purposes. This license is limited to the selected and paid-for final images only.
Client grants Photographer permission to use selected images for promotional, portfolio, publication, social media purposes, and in print and digital gallery showings, and further grants permission to sell prints of selected images from said showings, unless Client provides a written request to opt out at the time of booking.
All purchased images include standard professional editing in Photographer’s signature style.
Reasonable retouching requests beyond the standard may be accommodated at Photographer’s discretion. Additional fees may apply and will be discussed in advance.
Client agrees not to alter, edit, or apply filters to the final images and will not permit third parties to do so without Photographer’s written consent.
Client agrees to cooperate with Photographer and follow any reasonable direction during the session to ensure optimal results.
Client must arrive on time. If Client is more than 15 minutes late, Photographer may:
a) Charge a $50.00 USD late fee, payable before the session begins; b) Reschedule at Photographer’s discretion (deposit will apply to the new session); or c) Proceed with a shortened session, if Photographer’s schedule allows.
Photographer will make reasonable efforts to accommodate minor delays but cannot guarantee availability beyond the scheduled time.
Photographer’s liability for any claim arising from this Agreement is limited to the total amount paid by Client. In no event shall Photographer be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including but not limited to missed opportunities or emotional distress.
Neither party shall be held liable for any failure or delay in performance due to events beyond their control, including but not limited to natural disasters, illness, strikes, government orders, or other unforeseen emergencies.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Any disputes shall be resolved in the appropriate courts of that state.
This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties. No other communications, oral or written, are valid unless made in writing and signed by both parties.
By signing below, both parties acknowledge that they have read, understood, and agreed to all terms and conditions of this Agreement.
