A deposit of $500 is required to book the PHOTOGRAPHER for wedding photography.
The $500 deposit is 100% refundable, if cancellation is received within 7 days of booking.

The $500 deposit will become unrefundable if cancellation is received within 30 days of the wedding date.
The remainder of the balance is due one week before the date of the wedding. If the balance is not received one week before the date of the wedding, the party responsible for payment will be contacted to work out an arrangement. If payment cannot be arranged before the date of the wedding, the party then forfeit any monies paid toward the wedding package, including the deposit as well as any monies paid toward the total balance.

The CLIENT has no more than 6 months after the wedding to complete the order of the package selected. If the COMPANY has not heard from the CLIENT in a 6 month period, the COMPANY will contact the CLIENT as a courtesy to remind the CLIENT that their order has not been fulfilled. If the order remains unfulfilled after 1 additional month, the COMPANY will assume that the CLIENT has no interest in fulfilling the order and will remove the CLIENT's photos from the COMPANY's servers. At that point, no guarantee will be extended that the CLIENT will receive prints of their wedding photos. Also, all monies paid for the package will remain unrefundable.
