Please read these two points first

Your booking

Sending an enquiry doesn't book a date. Your booking is confirmed once we have agreed the date, the place, what will be photographed and the price in writing, by email or WhatsApp. We call that written agreement your quote. Your quote will link to these terms, so that you can read them before you agree. If your quote and these terms disagree, your quote applies.

Price and payment

Your quote sets out the price, any deposit and when payment is due.

If you need to cancel or change your date

Please tell us as soon as you can.

If we can't attend because of illness or something else beyond our control, we will contact you straight away to agree a new date or refund what you paid for that shoot.

On the day

You are responsible for getting any permission needed to photograph at your venue, and for telling us about anything we need to know to work safely there. If children will be photographed, a parent or guardian must agree.

Your photographs

Your edited photos are delivered digitally. Your quote sets out how many to expect and when.

Copyright and how the photos may be used

By agreeing your quote, you agree that Yulin Scott owns the copyright in the photographs unless your quote says otherwise. This agreement applies instead of the default rule in section 21(1)(c) of the Copyright Act, 1978, under which the person who commissions a photograph would own the copyright.

You may keep, print and share your photos for your own personal use. Please ask us in writing before using them commercially, and don't edit them in a way that misrepresents the work.

We may show the photographs in our portfolio, on this website and on social media. We ask for your permission before publishing a photo in which people can be recognised, and we will take a photo down if you ask us to.

Our responsibility to you

Nothing in these terms limits the rights you have under the Consumer Protection Act, 2008, or the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, 2002. As far as the law allows, our total liability for any claim about a shoot is limited to the amount you paid for that shoot. This limit doesn't apply to loss caused by the gross negligence of us or anyone acting for us.

General

South African law applies to these terms. Legal documents may be delivered to 101 Visser Street, Kraaifontein, Cape Town, 7570 . We may update them from time to time, and the version that applies to your booking is the one in place on the date your quote was agreed.
