Scheduling

 

JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) is not liable in any way if JLGerard Photography cannot get in touch with you if you provided inaccurate contact information during the registration process or if you are unavailable or for any other reason.

 

If neither an agent nor property owner is present at the time the Services are scheduled to be performed, and no prior requests related to the expected photo shot selection has been made, all photos taken will be at the discretion of the photographer. 

 

It is always the property owner’s and/or agent’s responsibility to prepare the property for the photo shoot, and JLGerard Photography is not responsible for homes that are not in ‘show-quality’ condition at the time of the photo shoot. JLGerard Photography shoots all photos of the property in “as-is” condition except for minor changes made to the properties lights and window coverings to enhance photo quality.

 

Unless access to the property is otherwise arranged, an agent or property owner must be present at the time of the tour. JLGerard Photography is not responsible for inaccessible properties and reserves the right to charge cancellation, reschedule, reshoot, or travel fees as a result of property inaccessibility.

 

Distribution of Services and Deliverables

After a shoot is completed and the photos are processed, the photos and tours will be uploaded. An email containing a link to the photos and Services will be sent to the contact on file. JLGerard Photography is not responsible for emails not received but will make an attempt to send Deliverables to an alternative email address if notified that the initial email was not received.

 

No refunds of fees will be given if a listing sells between the time the photos are taken and the time they are distributed to the agent and/or property owner.

With respect to Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret under applicable law, the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement will survive termination until, if ever, such Confidential Information loses applicable trade secret protection.

 

Fees and Payment 

You agree to pay us the fees in effect for each Service selected by you at the time you request the Service.  Prices are different for Services performed for residential properties and commercial properties. If fees for a particular Service are not listed on the Website or already agreed between us, contact JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) for more information. You agree to pay all fees in full without any setoff, recoupment, counterclaim, deduction, debit, or withholding for any reason.   All pricing for Services is subject to change at any time.   You will also reimburse us for all expenses incurred by us in collecting any late payments from you, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees. In addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement or at law, we will be entitled to immediately suspend your account or Services without prior notice to you if you fail to pay any amounts when due.

 

JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) will bill you for requested Services and Additional Fees through an online account (your “Billing Account”) at the completion of each Service.   If you and JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) have not agreed in writing to a different invoicing and payment process, you agree to pay JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) for all fees for Services requested by you or other persons (including your agents) via your Billing Account.  You agree to enter into your Billing Account valid payment card information and you authorize JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) to charge such payment card for all fees (your “Payment Method”).  You agree to make payment using your selected Payment Method for each Service and additional fees or expenses agreed or incurred, including but not limited to, charges for cancellation, reshoots, travel fees, ‘no show’ fees and/or upgrades to your chosen Services elected after the initial order was placed (collectively “Additional Fees” as further defined below).  If a valid Payment Method is not in the Billing Account or payment is not otherwise agreed or received by us when a Service is requested, the Service will not be performed.

 

We will bill your payment card upon completion of Services for all charges and Services unless otherwise agreed between us in writing prior to the completion of the Service.  You authorize JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) and the processor of your Payment Method to (a) initiate and pay recurring charges for all fees payable to JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) until such time as this Agreement is terminated and (b) pay charges for any Additional Fees that you may incur under the Agreement.  You further represent and warrant that (i) your Payment Method and the payment card information you supply to us is true, correct and complete, (ii) you are duly authorized to use such Payment Method to pay all fees, including recurring fees and Additional Fees, and (iii) payments made and charges incurred by you will be honored.  If JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) does not receive payment from your Payment Method, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account upon demand via an alternative method.

 

JLGerard Photography (Jennifer Gerard) will retain the Payment Method information as part of your Billing Account, as a convenience for you to pay recurring fees and for Services over time.   We will use commercially reasonable security policies and procedures and security tools with respect to your Payment Method information designed to prevent unauthorized access to your Payment Method.   However, it is impossible for us to maintain impervious security and we are not responsible for malicious attacks or theft that result in your Payment Method information being accessed by another party without our consent.
