Deposits and Refunds
BOOKING: For all "regular sessions" a 50% non-refundable session retainer is required to book and hold the date for your session and serves as a cancellation fee. However, the fee can be credited towards a future session. The remaining balance is due (7) days before the session date.
For wedding packages, a 50% event deposit is due immediately to book and hold the date of your event and also serves as a cancellation fee. Thereafter, half of the remaining balance is due three (3) months before the date of the wedding and the final balance is due one (1) month before the date of the wedding.
PAYMENT: All retainer fees must be paid immediately and session and other packages (plus taxes) can be paid via PayPal, cash, Zelle, CashApp, GooglePay, Visa, MasterCard, or AMEX.
CANCELLATION POLICY/REFUND POLICY: For regular sessions, client forfeits their session deposit and the 50% paid to book the session date will act as a cancellation fee. As previously stated, the fee can be credited towards a future session if the client reschedules the appointment by calling 72 hours prior to the date of session and re-booking at an agreeable date and time. In the event of cancellation not caused by CDA Photography a cancellation fee of 25% will be deducted from refund for date requested to be secured if cancellation is requested within 60 days of agreed event date. Cancellation fee can be added to future booking which full payment must be received at time of booking.
For weddings and events, if for any reason the Client cancels before the event or wedding date, the Photographer will keep the the event deposit fee paid to hold the wedding or event date as a cancellation fee (up to 50% of total). Cancellation must be made in writing, signed by the contracted parties, and sent via Certified Mail by the United States Post Office (email is sufficient during quarantine). However, if the client requires changing the wedding date, I will do my best to accommodate and no cancellation fee will be charged as long as the new date is available and within five months of the original event date. Otherwise the new date will be subject to current rates if applicable. If I am not available for the new date, the original contract will be cancelled and subject to the cancellation policy. At anytime your event can be covered by me or another photographer affiliated with CDA Photographer and edited by Carl Anderson.
The refund process will start within 14 business days of received written notice if notified before work is done. Refunds may take 30-60 days to be completed. Send all requests to [email protected].
