1. This agreement constitutes an order for wedding videography services, including the filming of the wedding as agreed to by both parties: AConti Media and client.  Unless otherwise specified, it is understood that any and all rights to proofs, final or footage, thereof shall remain property of AConti Media and may be used for advertising, marketing, display or any other purpose thought proper by AConti Media.

 

2. If the videographer, Anthony Conti, cannot perform this agreement in whole or in part due to an emergency, casualty, injury, acts of God or nature or terror or other cause beyond the control of the parties due to further liability with respect to this agreement no liability will be held to AConti Media. This limitation on liability shall also apply in the event that video materials are damaged in processing, lost through camera malfunction, lost in mail, or otherwise lost or damaged with fault on the part of the videographer.  Client(s) agree that an entire wedding cannot be replicated, reenacted or repeated for the purpose of a re-shoot and limits AConti Media liability to the amount paid under this contract.

 

 3. In the event of an extenuating circumstance on AConti Media’s part, AConti Media will find and hire an alternative videographer or reimburse the full amount paid to the customer, including the retainer fee. AConti Media will not be held liable for services not rendered.  To receive a full refund, AConti Media must be notified 60 days before the wedding day; if not, AConti Media will get to keep everything that has been paid for up until that point. AConti Media also has 90 days to refund the money upon receiving notification that the wedding was cancelled.

 

4. On signing of this agreement by both parties hereto, AConti Media will reserve the time agreed upon and will not make another reservation for the specific time frame.

 

5. A 25% retainer is needed to secure your date and time of wedding. The 25% retainer is non-refundable in the event of cancellation or date change. The 25% retainer covers the time spent coordinating pre wedding arrangements and securing a date which would otherwise be unavailable to other clients. The retainer will be applied towards the total amount billed. The remaining balance is due once AConti Media sends final proof.

 

6. The amount agreed upon covers the videographer’s time, talent, proofing and editing. It also cannot be changed or altered by any means.

AConti Media does not show un-edited footage, nor involve the clients in the process of choosing which clips will be chosen for the final film. AConti Media spends a great deal of time going through each clip individually. Please rest assured that AConti Media will only show you the BEST of the BEST and any footage that is unappealing (i.e. eyes closed, unflattering facial expressions and most definitely, any clips that do not meet AConti Media ‘s high professional standards will get deleted immediately).
