Terms of Service

1. Parties: The client engaging photography services is referred to as the “Client.” Mackenzie LaRoe is referred to as the “Photographer.” The Photographer provides professional photography services, and the Client wishes to retain these services for the session referenced above.

2. Retouching: The Client acknowledges and agrees that all images are professionally retouched at the Photographer’s artistic discretion, which is included in the session fee. Requests for additional or advanced editing—such as removing objects from the background, weight adjustments, or specific skin or facial features adjustments—are subject to an additional charge of $35 per image.

3. RAW Files: RAW or unedited images not selected for the final gallery are not delivered, released, or shared under any circumstances.

4. Product Refunds: Due to the custom and personal nature of photographic prints and products, all purchases are final and non-refundable.

5. Archival & Storage: The Photographer will archive images for one year from the session date. After this period, all proofed files will be permanently deleted from storage. The Photographer is not responsible for lost or damaged files after delivery. The Client is solely responsible for safely backing up all digital images once received.

   
   Clients may purchase an additional year of online gallery hosting and backup through the store linked within their gallery.

6. Copyright: The Client understands and agrees that the Photographer is the sole copyright holder of all images created during the session. The Client may not copy, alter, crop, or manipulate the images in any form. The Photographer retains full rights to use images for portfolio, website, marketing, advertising, print competitions, and promotional materials. All use of images on social media or elsewhere must include proper credit to “Mackenzie LaRoe.” Copyright infringement is a violation of Federal Law and will be pursued to the fullest extent.

7. Client Usage: Images delivered to the Client are for personal use only. The Client may not use images for commercial purposes—including marketing, advertising, publication, or contest entries—without prior written consent. Commercial use, if requested, will be subject to separate terms and licensing and is not guaranteed. To preserve the integrity and brand style of the Photographer, no additional editing or filters may be applied to the images by the Client or any third party.
