APPOINTMENTS
Appointments are made after an order is placed. If you confirm an appointment with your photographer, it is not officially confirmed until an email confirmation is provided, which is after an order for the appointment is created.

RELATIONSHIP TO PARTIES
The parties agree that Photographer is an independent contractor, and that neither Photographer, nor Photographers employees or contract personnel are, or shall be deemed to be, employees of Client. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employee-employer relationship is intended or created by this Agreement. Neither party is authorized to act as agent or bind the other party except as expressly stated in this Agreement. Photographer and the Photos or any other deliverables prepared by Photographer shall not be deemed a work for hire as defined under Copyright Law. All rights granted to Client are contractual in nature and are expressly defined by this Agreement.

EXPECTATIONS / RESPONSIBILITIES
It is expected that you, or the company you represent, have the right to photograph the property for sale, rent or otherwise. If this is not the case, the photographs, video, or other media are created are not usable and money will not be returned for services rendered.
Real Estate VisuAll will provide you a Home Preparation Checklist.pdf to go over, and/or share, with your homeowner. Please be advised this checklist is confidential and is not to be distributed or shared except with your seller and is to be destroyed once completed. Our appointment is for photography/videography of the home. Appointments are scheduled for a particular amount of time, normally back to back. If home is not ready to be photographed when we arrive and our appointment time is extended, the photographer reserves the right to charge $10 for each increment of 15 minutes over the expected time frame of the appointment. This is on top of any additional photo charges you desire to add on the package.

Home may be vacant without an agent present, but we reserve the right to abandon the property shoot if for any reason we do not feel safe or are unable to enter the home. We reserve the right to charge a cancellation fee if unable to photograph the home, or reshoot with agent present. We do not shoot properties that are occupied without an agent, agent representative, or homeowner present. We will enter staged/semi occupied homes without anyone present for established agents.

Ensuring the appropriate behavior of all people at the session covered by Real Estate VisuAll and her affiliates shall be the responsibility of the Client. Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated. It is best if pets are not home. If pets are home, they must be placed away from the photographer in a contained area. We understand that you love your animals, we do too, but due to the job we perform and equipment we carry, its important to not put our photographers or equipment at risk. Homeowners will be held liable if animals cause damage or injury to photographer or photography equipment. More on this in the Force Majeure and safe environment clause.

You must be able to download images yourself and have enough room on your hard drive of your computer to store the images, unzip them and upload them to the MLS yourself, or have a representative to do so for you, unless this is explicitly described in a service offering you have added to your package.

REGARDING DRONE/AERIALS
In the event that we are unable to complete drone/aerial footage and it has been ordered due to property being in a NO FLY ZONE, money for that service will either be refunded, or a discount will be applied to the next order. In the event we are unable to complete drone/aerial footage due to weather conditions including rain and/or wind, we will reshoot the aerial/drone footage for the property at a later date/time that works for the agent/homeowner. We reserve the right to charge a reshoot fee if a reduced rate drone footage fee was purchased for this property and is based on distance property location is from photographers home.
