These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern the provision of photography services by Luca Gargiulo Photography ("we", "us", or "our") to clients ("you" or "Client"). By booking our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. Our services are provided from Cork, Ireland, and these Terms are governed by Irish law.
Please read these Terms carefully before booking. If you have any questions, contact us at info@lucaphotoart.com.
We provide professional photography services including:
We offer three main packages: The Capture (portrait sessions), The Identity (half-day coverage), and The Full Story (full-day coverage). Specific details of services, deliverables, and pricing will be outlined in your booking agreement or quote.
Your booking is confirmed upon receipt of a signed agreement and payment of the required deposit. We reserve the right to decline any booking at our discretion.
A non-refundable deposit of 30% of the total fee is required to secure your booking. The deposit will be deducted from the final payment.
The remaining balance is due 7 days before the scheduled event or session. Images will not be delivered until full payment is received. Payment can be made by bank transfer, card, or other agreed methods.
Late payments may result in delayed delivery of images. We reserve the right to charge interest on overdue payments in accordance with Irish law.
In the unlikely event that we must cancel due to illness, emergency, or unforeseen circumstances, you will receive a full refund of all payments made. We will make reasonable efforts to provide a qualified substitute photographer. Our liability is limited to the refund of fees paid.
Rescheduling requests must be made in writing. If we are available on the new date, your booking can be rescheduled at no additional charge (subject to availability). If we are not available, standard cancellation terms apply.
All photographs and images created by us remain our intellectual property and are protected by Irish and international copyright law. We retain full copyright and ownership of all images.
Upon full payment, you are granted a non-exclusive, perpetual license to use the delivered images for:
You may NOT:
We reserve the right to use any images from your session for our portfolio, website, social media, marketing materials, competitions, and promotional purposes. If you wish to restrict this usage, please notify us in writing before the event. Privacy restrictions may incur an additional fee.
Delivery times depend on your package:
Delivery times may vary during peak season. We will communicate expected delivery dates at the time of booking and notify you of any changes. Rush delivery may be available upon request for an additional fee, subject to availability.
Images are delivered digitally via a secure online gallery where you can download high-resolution files. Gallery access is typically available for 90 days. Physical prints or albums can be arranged for an additional fee.
The number of edited images varies by package and event type and will be specified in your booking agreement. We deliver only the best, professionally edited images—not all images captured.
By booking our services, you (and your guests, if applicable to your event) grant permission to be photographed and consent to our use of these images as outlined in the "Copyright and Usage Rights" section. For events involving minors, we rely on parental or guardian consent.
If you or your guests do not wish to be featured in our promotional materials, please inform us in writing before the event.
We use professional equipment and carry backup gear to all events. However, in the unlikely event of complete equipment failure or data loss, our liability is limited to a full refund of fees paid. We cannot be held liable for indirect or consequential damages.
We are not liable for failure to perform our obligations due to circumstances beyond our control, including but not limited to: illness, injury, natural disasters, pandemic restrictions, travel disruptions, or venue restrictions. In such cases, we will work with you to reschedule or provide a partial refund as appropriate.
You are responsible for obtaining all necessary permissions and access to venues and locations. We are not liable for any issues arising from lack of access, venue restrictions, or lighting conditions beyond our control.
We cannot be held responsible for interference by third parties (e.g., guests obstructing shots, venue coordinators limiting access) that impacts the quality or quantity of images captured.
Our total liability under these Terms, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, is limited to the total amount of fees you have paid for our services. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages.
As the Client, you agree to:
All delivered images are professionally edited with color correction, exposure adjustments, and our signature editing style. Basic retouching (blemish removal, minor adjustments) is included. Extensive retouching (body reshaping, background changes, etc.) may be available for an additional fee upon request.
Our editing style is part of our artistic expression. We do not provide unedited RAW files as part of standard packages.
If you are dissatisfied with any aspect of our service, please contact us within 14 days of image delivery at info@lucaphotoart.com. We will work with you in good faith to resolve any issues.
Any disputes arising from these Terms will be governed by Irish law and subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Irish courts.
We carry professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Proof of insurance can be provided upon request for venue requirements.
We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. The version in effect at the time of your booking will apply to your service contract. Continued use of our services after changes indicates acceptance of updated Terms.
These Terms, together with your signed booking agreement and any additional written agreements, constitute the entire agreement between you and Luca Gargiulo Photography. Any verbal agreements or representations not included in writing are not binding.
