PRODUCTION/POST-PRODUCTION

Photographic Style

The Client acknowledges being familiar with the photographic style of the Photographer and seeks their services with full awareness. The Client also acknowledges that the Photographer's work is constantly evolving, that the service offered by the Photographer is unique and artistic, and that the delivered photographs may differ from those taken by the Photographer in the past. The Photographer ensures the use of all their potential and personal artistic judgment to create images consistent with their personal vision of the event or photo session.

 

As a professional photographer, the Photographer is the sole decision-maker regarding the choice of shots and images taken during the photo session, as well as its progression and the staging of individuals participating in the session. They propose to their Clients, who accept, the creation of photographs corresponding to a unique and specific artistic universe.

 

Special Conditions

The Photographer does everything possible to adapt to the conditions of the event or photo session, including the location, weather, available light, time constraints, and the subjects' preferences. However, the Client acknowledges that the quality of the photographs largely depends on these conditions.

Photograph Processing

Post-processing, like shooting, is specific to the Photographer and is an integral part of their work and artistic style.

Photograph processing involves cropping, color correction, and adjustments to all photographs.

 

No morphological retouching is included.

The service does not include any physical/print photographs. Digital-format photos will be delivered solely through a dedicated gallery to the Client with the entire selection via a platform designed for this purpose.

 

Depending on the chosen package, the Client has a fixed number of included digital photos in the service. Under no circumstances will the photographer deliver all the photos taken. If the Client wishes to acquire additional photos, a package will be offered in addition to the initial service.

 

The additional photo will be charged at ten (10)€.
