TERMS & CONDITIONS

PREPPING FOR YOUR SHOOT:
Your should arrive to the shoot 15 minutes early to check in hair/wardrobe and makeup ready with a few wardrobe choices. We will go through this with you and prep your child for his or her shoot!

PAYMENT/FEES:
Full payment is required to book your shoot with your balance of any add on’s due the day of the shoot.
We accept Cash, Visa, Mastercard & American Express. There are NO refunds on Session Fees.

RESCHEDULING:
Unfortunately – due to time constraints, we are unable to accommodate rescheduling unless there is an open time slot available, if you switch with another booked dancer and only at the booth during your convention.

PUNCTUALITY:
It is VERY important that you show up 15 minutes PRIOR to your scheduled shoot time in your wardrobe and with hair & makeup ready “Camera Ready”. If you show up more than 15 minutes late, then your session will rescheduled and a $50 change fee will apply – only if we have available space. If you show up late and we do not have any available time slots, we reserve the right to charge you for extra studio time or cancel your shoot without a refund.

NO-SHOWS:
Luckily I’ve never had someone not show up to their shoot – but if this does happen – You will lose your time slot and session fee and have to re-book your shoot. At that point we will let you know if we have any time slots available for you.

CANCELLATIONS:
Unfortunately – do to the heavy cost involved to bring Hollywood Dance Shoot to your Competition, Convention or Studio, we do not allow cancellations.  If you need to cancel you will lose your session fee.

PERFORMANCE:
We at Hollywood Dance shoot strive to give you the best possible images of your dancer. Our proven system works and it’s important that you follow all the steps necessary to ensure a successful shoot. You will be given videos on how to prep your wardrobe and how to prep your dancer to come ready with dance poses. In addition, to help ensure a successful shoot, we will also have a choreographer with our “Look Book” – famous Hollywood Dance Shoot Poses – so your dancer will have direction at the shoot. We can guarantee our work, but can not guarantee your dancers performance and can not do reshoots or extend the time frame of a shoot due to lack of preparation.

RESHOOTS:
We do not do any reshoots under any circumstances, unless the fault is our own (technical reasons etc…).

COPYRIGHT:
Hollywood Dance Shoot & Levi Walker Photography will own the copyrights to all images.

In order for me to keep my session fees down, i’ve worked very hard over the past several months to provide high quality prints and wall art at very competitive prices. You want your child to look beautiful – and I want my art to look beautiful as well! You will be given Levi’s top images that are WEB READY and will NOT be printable. But you are more than welcome to use the images in any digital format you would like to use such as Instagram, Facebook, Online Casting etc…a

Thanks so much and we look forward to having you at the studio!
