Policies & Information

Deposits

Our Deposit Policy explains what happens to a deposit if a photoshoot is cancelled and the amount refunded to the client (if any).

Photoshoot Deposits

A £60 deposit is required to confirm a booking.

Cancellation by Richard’s Photography

If we need to cancel, the deposit will be returned in full (no administrative charges).

Cancellation by Client

If the client cancels, the following refunds will be given:

  • Two weeks’ notice of cancellation: full refund minus £5 administration charge or option to rebook to a mutually agreeable date.
  • One week’s notice (but less than two weeks’ notice): 50% refund minus £5 administration charge or option to rebook to a mutually agreeable date.
  • Three days’ notice (but less than one week’s notice): the option to rebook to a mutually agreeable date or loss of deposit.
  • The option to rebook only applies to the first request to rebook, not subsequent requests. When a photoshoot is rearranged for another date at the client’s request, any further changes will result in a loss of deposit in full, regardless of the notice given.
  • A day is a full day; for example, if a photoshoot is arranged for 10 am on a Wednesday, the photoshoot must be cancelled by 10 am on the Sunday before (three days in advance).
  • A week is a full week; for example, if a photoshoot is arranged for Wednesday, the photoshoot must be cancelled by Tuesday of the previous week.

Failure to Attend

If a client fails to attend without any notice, the deposit is forfeited in full. Future bookings will be declined (unless there are exceptional reasons for which evidence can be produced).
