4. RESCHEDULING/ CANCELLATION
Photographer understands that issues can creep up and that it may be in everyone’s best interest to reschedule a wedding. Although, once

looking to book that date. If Client has to reschedule wedding to a later date, their deposit will follow them to their new date ONLY IF
Photographer is able to book a new couple on previous selected date. If Photographer does not book a new Client for 2 months after
notification from current Client of the reschedule, Client will have to pay a new deposit for the new date, and sign a new contract.
If health issues arise, Photographer will do her best to reschedule Client’s session, while the Client will do his/her best to notify Photographer
at least 48 hours prior to the session, or at least as soon as possible after the issue is identified. If in-climate weather is an issue the day of the
session, Photographer will notify client at least 6 hours prior to reschedule.
