Studio Rescheduling policy

Deposit fee is paid in advance to secure your chosen date. It is non-refundable should you cancel, but is transferable to another date in the event you wish to amend your booking.

In order to ensure that we can accommodate your needs while also being fair to our other clients, we have implemented the following rescheduling policy:

1. If you reschedule your session on the day of your original appointment, an additional charge of PHP 1000 will incur. Your appointment is considered canceled.

2. If you reschedule your session within one week (or less) of your original appointment, an additional charge of PHP 500 will incur. However, if you reschedule more than one week prior to your original photoshoot date, there will be no additional fee.

3. If you wish to reschedule, you can choose a new date for your session only within three months of your original appointment.

4. You can reschedule up to 2 times before your booking will be canceled. If you wish to reschedule the third time, your booking will be considered new and you need to pay the deposit fee.

5. You can only rebook the same package you originally availed.

6. This policy applies to all events except in cases of emergency. Special consideration will be applied on case to case basis.

7. In case of an emergency, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us as soon as possible to discuss rescheduling options.

Refund Policy for Portrait Sessions and Prints

In the case of camera failure, inclement weather, or any other unforeseen incident that prevents Cimmaroon Photography from shooting on a scheduled date, a new date will be scheduled or client will be refund of their deposit, if applicable.

No refund will be given under any circumstances if you fail to attend the activity on the day and at the time listed, when the booking was made.

Due to the nature of digital photography and the fact that photographs, once sent, cannot be returned; Cimmaroon Photography has a strict NO REFUND POLICY. Once a transaction has been completed (i.e., the buyer selected and paid for the photo and then Cimmaroon Photography sent the buyer the correct photograph) it is then considered non-refundable. If a buyer has selected and purchased an incorrect photo, he/she must notify Cimmaroon Photography, before receiving the “incorrect” photograph.

Refunds will NOT be given due to “not liking a photo”, selecting an incorrect photo after the buyer has already received the photograph, or any other reason. If a mistaken photo is sent to the buyer, as documented on the invoice, Cimmaroon Photography will send the correct photo to the buyer free of charge.

Client may request to re-edit pictures with consideration. You may select up to the number of photos promised on the package availed. For example for full packages, you can select up to 50 photos and for digital packages you can select up to 30 photos.

Any questions regarding this Policy please contact us.
