         Client acknowledges that the Photographer and a Film Maker is a “Documentary Wedding Film Maker” and adheres to the said style. Client acknowledges that the Film Maker is using their artistic discretion to create film as the Film Maker sees fit. There can not be any fundamental changes done in the short film we make, only adding or removing any (4-5 shots) can be done, which also should be mutually decided.

  • Coverage

         The Photographers/Cinematographers will be present on wedding/event days as per the time scheduled, and it is up to the Photographer/Film Maker when enough photo/film have been captured.

  • Use of Film

  • Deliverable

         As mentioned in the quotation. We do not use DVD anymore (as they are outdated for the high quality data size we work in). You have to provide a Hard disk drive (500-1000 GB), in which entire raw & processed data will be given to you.

In case of cinematic video in first 3 months Full Length or Short Film & Next three months remaining video ( Full or short ). Deliverable timelines of the short video can change due to selection of the music. It is a time consuming process as we finalize music when couple and we agree on one. This process can take longer than expected.

This limitation on liability shall also apply in the event that digital data and related materials are damaged in storage or transport, lost through camera malfunction, lost in the mail, fire or otherwise lost or damaged without fault on the part of the Film Maker. Client understands the unpredictable and non-posed nature of photojournalism (assumption of risk) and waives any right to any civil action due to missed or lost film or digital data (including but not limited to unintentional infliction of emotional distress and negligence).

The Client shall insure the placement of the bridal party, the officiant(s) and the altar decorations so as to not obscure the view of the bride and groom. The Film Maker will abide by the rules of the church/synagogue/temple in regards to camera placement during the ceremony. Many private venues/businesses are charging a photography/filming permit fee. The client is responsible for the payment of such fee.
