General

These terms and conditions apply to all photography services provided by Dia Jonas Dreessen (“the Photographer”) to any client (“the Client”). By booking a session or service, the Client agrees to these terms.

Services

The Photographer provides event, corporate, portrait, and lifestyle photography. The scope, duration, and location of each assignment are defined in writing prior to the shoot. Any additional services, such as retouching, travel, or rush delivery, will be agreed upon separately.

Booking & Payment

A booking is confirmed once a written agreement or confirmation (by email) has been received and a deposit has been paid if required.

  • Deposit: A non-refundable deposit of 25–50% may be requested to secure the date. For large assignments (such as multi-day events, corporate productions, or projects exceeding €1,500), a deposit of 30% is required upon confirmation.

  • Final Payment: For standard sessions, the remaining balance is due before delivery of the final images, unless otherwise agreed in writing. For large assignments, the final payment is due within 30 days after the invoice date.

  • Invoices: All invoices are due within the stated term. Late payments may incur statutory interest and administrative costs.

Cancellations & Rescheduling

  • If the Client cancels the booking more than 7 days before the shoot, only the deposit (if applicable) will be retained.

  • If the Client cancels within 7 days, the full agreed fee may be charged, depending on preparation or travel costs already incurred.

  • Rescheduling due to unforeseen circumstances will be handled with understanding, and a new date will be agreed upon if possible.

If the Photographer cannot fulfil the assignment due to illness or unforeseen events, every reasonable effort will be made to find a replacement or reschedule. If that’s not possible, the Client will be refunded in full.

Image Delivery

The Photographer delivers high-resolution edited images within the agreed timeframe, usually via a secure online gallery or download link.
Raw (unedited) files are not included, unless specifically agreed and paid for.

Usage Rights

The Photographer retains all copyright to the images.

  • The Client receives a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the images for the agreed purpose (e.g., private use, company website, social media, press materials).

  • Any commercial, editorial, or third-party use beyond the original scope requires written permission.

  • The Photographer may use selected images for portfolio, website, and promotional purposes unless the Client objects in writing before the shoot.

Editing & Style

The Client acknowledges that the Photographer’s editing style and artistic judgement are integral to the work. Minor retouching is included. Requests for additional editing or manipulation may be subject to extra fees.

Liability

While all care is taken to produce and deliver quality images, the Photographer cannot be held liable for loss, damage, or delay beyond their control (equipment failure, natural events, or third-party actions).
Liability is limited to the amount paid for the assignment.

Privacy & Data

Personal data and client information are handled confidentially and in compliance with applicable data protection laws. Images featuring people will not be shared publicly without consent.

Complaints

Any complaints must be made in writing within 7 days of image delivery. Both parties will aim to resolve the matter in a fair and professional way.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by Dutch law. Any disputes will be handled by the competent court in Amsterdam.
