Client Privacy

Provocateur Images takes client privacy VERY seriously. You will never be tagged or referenced by name on any social media platform unless YOU request it. Your personal information or images will never be shared with any 3rd party either.

Images from your session may ONLY be used if:
– The image is anonymous and any identifying marks such as tattoos and birthmarks are removed

Client Image Usage

As the photographer, Provocateur Images owns the copyright to the images captured and the client understands that they have no rights or claims to the images from the session either printed or electronic as per Canadian copyright law. Clients may use the images as they choose from a session in NON COMMERCIAL applications meaning that the images can not be used for advertisement or re-sold. The print licence allows the production of up to 8×10 prints by the client ONLY. If full resolution images are required, then an extended usage license can be sold for the images that the client wants and the file(s) will be provided in high resolution.

Booking Sales Terms

In order to secure a booking, every session requires full payment of the session retainer which is NON-REFUNDABLE and DOES NOT include finished products or digital images. Finished products are purchased at the ordering session.

Ordering Session / Ordering Finished Product

Ordering Sessions are held approximately 1 week after the photo session with a video call where you will view your retouched images. Photographic Proofs are made available to the client and any order of finished products must be placed at that time. If no order for Photographic Images was placed at the time of the viewing session, the Photographic Proofs will be held for seven days. After seven days if no order has been placed, all session images will be deleted, NO EXCEPTIONS. All finished products both electronic and printed are NON-REFUNDABLE. Once orders are placed, there are no refunds or downgrades.

If a second ordering session is required, that viewing will have a cost of $200 which can NOT be taken out of the print credit in collections and if digital images have already been provided, additional image substitutions will be billed as per the collection.

Payment Plans

Provocateur Images offers an extended payment plan by which you can pay for your order in instalments ranging from 2 weeks to 12 months.
