Covid-19 Policy

Due to the recent pandemic I understand that there is so much uncertainty planning events however deposits/payments can only be refunded should government guidelines restrict you from moving forward with your event. This is includes government imposed lockdowns and if you or baby contract the virus. Change of mind is sadly non- refundable once you have confirmed your booking. I understand that these are difficult times for families but it has been equally difficult for small business like me so I appreciate your respect when agreeing to my terms and conditions and confirming me for your special day.

In the event Powderpuff Photography contracts covid-19 prior to your event date and is required by law to isolate every effort will be made to find a suitable replacement for your day and any monies paid will be refunded. I will be following health orders at the time of your day and will be wearing a mask and socially distancing where I can. Close contact with guests will be limited so some table photos may not be viable on the day depending on your venue set up. I trust you understand this decision.

Replacement

In the event that Powderpuff Photography is unable to photograph your session due to: illness, emergency, accident, or act of God, every effort will be made to reschedule. If a rescheduling is unavailable, the payment(s) made to Powderpuff Photography will be refunded in full, and return of the payment(s) shall be the entire obligation under this contract. No other damages or guarantees of any kind are recognised or warranted.
