About this website

Client photography — copyright and usage

For clients who have booked my services, the terms of photograph usage are governed by your individual photography contract. In general:

  • Copyright remains with Franklyn K Photography at all times. You receive a personal, non-commercial license to use your wedding photographs
  • Personal use — You are free to print, share on social media, and use your photographs for personal, non-commercial purposes. A credit or tag (@franklyn.kw) is always appreciated
  • Commercial use — Use of photographs for commercial purposes (advertising, vendor marketing, paid publications) requires separate written agreement
  • Vendor sharing — Wedding vendors featured in your celebration (planners, venues, florists) may use photographs for their portfolios with proper credit, as outlined in your contract

Website use

When using this website, you agree not to:

  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the website or its servers
  • Use automated tools to scrape, crawl, or download content (except authorized search engine crawlers as specified in our robots.txt)
  • Interfere with the website's performance or availability
  • Submit false or misleading information through any form

Inquiry and contact forms

When you submit an inquiry through my contact form, you consent to being contacted regarding your inquiry. I respond to every inquiry personally, typically within 24 hours. Submitting an inquiry does not constitute a booking or create a contractual obligation on either party.

Blog content

The articles and guides on my blog are provided for informational and inspirational purposes. While I strive for accuracy, the information reflects my personal experience and professional opinion. It should not be taken as legal, financial, or professional advice.

Wedding venues, pricing, and availability mentioned in blog articles may change over time. I recommend verifying current information directly with the venues and vendors mentioned.

Third-party links

This website contains links to third-party websites (venues, vendors, publications). These links are provided for your convenience and reference. I am not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or availability of external websites.

Photography services — general terms

The following are general terms that apply to my photography services. Specific terms for your booking are detailed in your individual photography contract.

Booking and deposit. A booking is confirmed upon signing the photography contract and payment of the required deposit. Dates are held on a first-come, first-served basis.

Delivery timeline. Standard delivery is within 6 to 8 weeks after your wedding day. The Grand Collection includes expedited delivery within one week. Delivery timelines are estimates and may vary during peak season.

Travel. For destination weddings, travel costs (transportation, accommodation, meals) are quoted separately and added to your collection as a single grouped line item. Travel arrangements are finalized in advance and detailed in your contract.

Cancellation. Cancellation terms are detailed in your individual photography contract. In general, deposits are non-refundable as they secure your date and represent opportunity cost.

Limitation of liability

While I take every precaution to deliver exceptional photography services — including professional-grade equipment, backup cameras and memory cards, and comprehensive insurance — no photographer can guarantee specific results. Photography is inherently dependent on conditions such as lighting, weather, and the flow of events.

My total liability in any circumstance shall not exceed the total amount paid for the photography services rendered.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of France. Any disputes arising from these terms or from photography services shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in the Paris region, France.

Changes to these terms

I reserve the right to update these terms at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of the website after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
