Session Contract Agreement - Through your download gallery, you'll have the option to order professional prints and canvases. Once you download your images, you can order right in the gallery! If you choose to print yourself, please use a professional lab or printing service. In Knoxville, you can print with F/32 Photo or use a service such as Shutterfly or online professional printing lab (WHCC, Millers, or Mpix). Please do not use a 1-hour or retail printers (Walgreens, Walmart, Target, CVS, Costco…) all of these options are low-quality and will not best represent my work. At your convenience, please read through the policies below. If you have any questions, please give me a call and I'll be happy to go through it with you or clarify anything! When you're ready, just sign and hit "SUBMIT" then select your session option and click "Pay Now" to book your session. (Keep in mind the signature and the payment link are two separate steps!) 1. An agreement of session details via email, a digital signature on this form, and the retainer or the full session fee and any add-on option(s) are required to reserve the time and date agreed upon, and ensures that Photographer will make no other reservations for that time. 2. For this reason, the session retainer fee is non-refundable, even if date is changed for any reason. In the instance of cancellation, the session fee will be applied to any future service, with new date booked within 30 days of original contract date, with new session date within 6 months of original session date, and will require a $50 rescheduling fee due to reserve the new date. (Seasonal mini-sessions subject to full session cost of $500 if scheduling not arranged during the original Mini-Session promotional months (April-May or October-November). Any sessions moved from one season to the next will require a $50 rescheduling fee. Any retainer fee paid will be forfeited after 30 days, if the Client has not made arrangements for a new session. It will also be the responsibility of the Client to stay in contact with the Photographer to make such arrangements. Due to scheduling, Photographer will propose several possible alternative session dates. If a suitable rescheduling cannot be reached, at the Photographer’s discretion the session can be scheduled further than 30 days. Only 2 reschedules or a period of 30 days without contact or cooperation for rescheduling are permitted before Client is at risk of losing Session Retainer for Noncompliance. 3. If you cancel or reschedule within 24 hours of your session, a $50 retainer will need to be paid to book another session. If sickness, injury, or rainy/inclement weather requires rescheduling, no penalty will be applied. 4. In the unlikely event that the Photographer is injured, becomes too ill to photograph the session, or cannot perform this agreement due to fire, casualty, nature, or other cause beyond the control of all parties, the Photographer will make every effort to secure a rescheduling of session on an alternate date or assigning one of the Associate Photographers to fulfill the session if that is the client’s preference to keep the scheduled date. 5. Every photo you receive is a direct reflection of Emerald + Ivy, so each image you receive will be professionally retouched and enhanced in the best way possible, as decided by Photographer. Photographer will edit any obvious blemishes, blur backgrounds, remove distracting elements from the photos, etc. If you request additional editing beyond the standard editing process/time spent – there might be a charge of $5-10 per photo, at Photographer’s discretion. This will be discussed with you and confirmed before invoicing for additional editing costs. 6. The Client shall assist and cooperate with the Photographer in obtaining the desired photographs. The Photographer shall not be responsible for photographs not taken, or the outcome of photographs as a result of the Client’s failure to provide reasonable assistance, communication, or punctuality. Any tardiness will result in shortened session time. Tardiness of more than 10 minutes to this session without communication with Photographer will be considered a cancellation. See #2 for cancellation policy. Please also understand that due to the short session time, if any little ones are not happy or uncooperative, it may result in a lower number of images. If you feel you need more time, you are free to wait until after the next session is completed to see if there's any other images we can capture. If you decide to reschedule, please refer to #3 for any fee applicable. 7. The Client will receive a link to view and download the High-Resolution images with unlimited personal Print/Usage Release within 2 weeks of session. 8. The Photographer retains copyright in the photographs, and hereby grants the Client unlimited but non-exclusive rights to use or reproduce the photographs for which the Client has paid. Use of photos for advertising purposes by Photographer is acceptable, unless otherwise noted below in the comments section of your signature form. 9. Digital images purchased are the property of the Client for personal use only. However, Copyright Law dictates that Photographer’s work may not be altered, re-edited or changed in any way by Client. (This includes editing the image in any way, cropping more than simply printing, or applying any filters on social media such as FaceBook or Instagram.) 10. Photographer also requests that any photos published online, be noted with Emerald + Ivy as the Photographer by tagging on social media, both in the image and in the caption.

by selecting this box, I agree to these terms & conditions.

After you submit this form with your contract signature, I will send a fee request to be completed within 48 hours to reserve your spot. Thank you so much for trusting me with preserving your family’s legacy through photographs!
