Sole Rights: Flashpoint Photography shall be the sole Professional Photographer at the assignment and will be granted full artistic licence in relation to the photographs taken. The decision made by the photographer/s regarding location, poses etc. shall be deemed correct.

Coverage: The photographer/s will not be held responsible for the lack of coverage caused due to the following reasons: the individuals or groups not being on time. Individuals or members of a group or party not making themselves available when called for a shot. If the event or occasion is running late or because of restrictions regarding photography at a desired location. The photographer/s with the co-operation of the client will do their best to produce coverage within the time scale allocated to them.

Requested Photographs: The photographer/s will do their best to honour all requested photographs requested by the client providing that the following factors are met: weather and allocated time permitting and the availability and co-operation of the person/s concerned. All requested photographs must form part of the client’s final order or the client will incur an extra charge for each requested photograph taken and not purchased. Failure to obtain requested shots does not entertain any discounts, refunds or invalidation of any contract made with Flashpoint Photography or the business proprietor.

Weather: Weather permitting all photographs will be taken as agreed. In the event of rain, snow or other form of weather disturbances, the photographer/s will make the necessary changes regarding the photographs and will not be held responsible for any disappointment caused by the weather or venue limitations. In dark situations or areas where we are unable to use flash the photographs may appear 'grainy' due to a higher speed setting or ISO which we will have to use to compensate in such situations. We will do our best to avoid such situations but it may happen in some cases where light is limited and flash prohibited.

Photo-chromatic Anomalies: Owing to the reflectance cause by a combination of certain dyes and materials, especially in man-made fibres, it is sometimes impossible to record on camera the exact colour of materials as seen by the human eye. The photographs should provide a pleasing colour balance based on flesh tones. Exact colour matching from the original photographs, negatives or files cannot be guaranteed on any reprints. Colours will try to match the original photographs but may vary slightly.
