Cancellation Charges

No one likes to issue or receive an invoice for a cancellation fee and we avoid it where ever possible.

Situations however do occur when late cancellations cost us a great deal of time and money. We do not charge deposits for portrait sittings at the time of the booking because we are convinced that if we treat our clients with integrity they will do the same to us.

Late cancellations for the studio sittings are generally not a problem and we can usually be very understanding!

Late cancellations for at home sittings are a serious problem and at best it means I have to spend 4 hours in a lay bye. At worst it can cost us up to £750 in lost revenue and make a whole trip unprofitable, to say nothing of it's affect on other peoples travel fees and the fact that I still have to pay hotel bills and motoring costs.

We are always very understanding in a real emergency but we do find it hard not to invoke a cancellation fee when we are told we are being cancelled because someone forgot they had a hair appointment!
