Indemnity
While the photographer takes all reasonable care in the performance of this agreement generally, I shall not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by the Client or by any third party arising from use or reproduction of any image or its caption.
a. The Client agrees to indemnify the photographer in respect of any claims or damages or any costs arising in any manner from the reproduction without proper reproduction rights of any image supplied to the Client by the photographer.
b. It is the Client who must satisfy himself that all necessary rights, model releases or consents which may be required for reproduction, are obtained and it is acknowledged that the photographer gives no warranty or undertaking that any such rights, model releases or consents have or will be obtained whether in relation to the use of names, people, trademarks, registered or copyright designs or works of art depicted in any image. In the event that the image issued or reproduced by or with the authority of the Client then the Client shall indemnify the photographer against any loss or damage, proceedings or costs where such rights, releases or consents have not been obtained

Payment
a. Payment terms are strictly 30 days from date of invoice by cheque made payable to “Nina Mommsen” or by automated credit transfer.  The bank details will be supplied with our invoice if this is a more convenient method of payment. Proof of postage of remittances is not considered proof of receipt, and clients are advised to send payment by any method affording proof of delivery. We understand and will exercise our statutory right to claim interest and compensation for debt recovery costs under the late payment of commercial debts act if we are not paid according to agreed credit terms.
b. If payment is not made in accordance with above then the photographer may rescind this agreement and recover damages, or, at her discretion, may exercise her statutory right to interest under the Late Payment.
c. If any invoice issued to the Client is not paid by the due date, then all unpaid invoices issued to the Client become due of immediate effect, even if it is less than 30 days from the issue date, and that Foto-Pro may consider these invoices as overdue when pursuing legal action for the recovery of said debts.
d. A fee of BD20 may be made for each account reminder, duplicate invoice, or any other paperwork, correspondence or phone calls involved with the pursuing of a debt. This fee is non-refundable, and represents the additional time spent pursuing overdue invoices.
e. The photographer reserves the right to suspend ongoing services, such as (but not limited to) the downloadable web page or other distribution of images, once any invoice issued to a Client becomes overdue, and also reserves the right to inform the reason of this to third parties to whom this suspension of service affects.
f. On the Client’s death or bankruptcy or (if the Client is a company) in the event of a resolution, petition or order for winding up being made against it, or if a receiver is appointed, the photographer may at any time thereafter inspect any records, accounts and books relating to the reproduction of their images to ensure that the images are being used only in accordance with the reproduction rights granted to the Client.

Expenses
Where extra expenses or time are incurred by the Photographer as a result of alterations to the original brief by the client, or otherwise at their request, the client shall give approval to and be liable to pay such extra expenses or fees at the Photographer’s normal rate to the Photographer in addition to the expenses shown as having been agreed or estimated.
