Media Policy & Terms of Service

 

Effective: July 2025 – January 2026

 

By booking with David Valladolid (the “Photographer/Videographer” or “Service Provider”), clients (“Client”) agree to the following terms:

 

 

Media Delivery & Access

 

Finalized photos are delivered through a private Adobe Lightroom link. These galleries will remain accessible through January 31, 2026. After this date, access is not guaranteed and recovery of archived files may not be possible or may incur a fee.

 

 

Copyright & Usage Rights

 

Booking a session grants the Photographer/Videographer full rights to use any captured media (photos or videos) on social media, the official website, and in other promotional material. This includes rights to publish, display, and reproduce content for marketing purposes.

Clients may use delivered content for personal and promotional use but may not alter, sell, or distribute the media for profit without written permission.

This media release is irrevocable unless a written exception is made before the session begins.

 

 

Pricing & Payment Terms

 

Pricing is flexible and determined through mutual agreement between the Service Provider and Client.

A nonrefundable deposit of 50% may be required before the shoot. This secures the booking and is not transferable or refundable.

The full balance must be paid before the final delivery of any media. No media will be released until full payment is received.

All sales are final and nonrefundable.

Discounts may be offered solely at the discretion of the Service Provider.

 

 

Revisions & Edits

 

All videos and photos delivered are considered final unless the Service Provider explicitly agrees to make changes.

Revisions beyond what was initially agreed upon may incur additional fees and are evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

 

 

File Retention & Client Responsibility

 

All video footage is typically deleted after delivery. Clients are responsible for downloading and saving their media immediately upon receipt.

Re-delivery of deleted files is not guaranteed.

 

 

Sports Content Disclaimer

 

For sports videography, the Service Provider is not responsible for the quality of athletic performance or event outcomes.

As long as the footage is technically sound and delivered as promised, refunds will not be issued based on dissatisfaction with game performance or content.

 

 

Cancellations & Rescheduling

 

Clients who wish to reschedule must give reasonable notice. New dates are not guaranteed and are subject to availability.

Deposits remain nonrefundable but may be credited to a future session at the discretion of the Service Provider.

 

 

Limitation of Liability

 

In the event of circumstances beyond the Service Provider’s control—such as equipment failure, accident, illness, or natural disaster—efforts will be made to reschedule or provide a fair resolution not exceeding the original payment.

The Service Provider is not liable for any damages, lost opportunities, or client dissatisfaction that arise from the use or non-use of delivered content.

 

 

Legal Compliance

 

All services are performed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

This policy complies with local, state, and federal business and media licensing regulations.

 

 

Agreement to Terms

 

By booking a session, paying a deposit, or receiving content, the Client agrees to these terms and policies. This policy is subject to change, and any updates will be posted on the official website or communicated directly.
