Bargains

​

• Dateable Photography processes. pricing, charges and the whole service is designed in such a way that there's no need or scope for any kind of bargaining or negotiations before, during, or after the shoot.

​

• Bargaining includes asking for discounts, free photos, raw images, photo dumps, free rush delivery, airbrushing, photo manipulation, skin color lightening or changing, slimming in Photoshop.

​

• I believe anything given away free is never actually free and the cost of which is already included (without your knowledge) in the pricing structure. If you don't ask for it, you lose.

​

• But that's not how it is with Dateable. Dateable is a honest and transparent Headshot and Portrait Photography service. Pricing is transparent and nothing is hidden so that you don't have to worry about missing out on any freebies. Whatever is included (mentioned above clearly) will be given to you, whether you ask for it or not.

​

Payments

​

• If you don't trust Dateable enough to make full payment before delivery, you are choosing a wrong service. Hence, in anticipation that you are not likely to make the full payment, editing work will be suspended till full payment is realized and the delivery date will be moved accordingly. Hence the standard 7 day delivery guarantee is not applicable.

​

Change of Mind

​

• Any change in photo selection after 24 hrs. from the date and time of photo selection is considered as additional photos and charged accordingly. You will get the photos you selected in the beginning as well as the new photos you selected - both will be duly edited.

​

​

Studio

​

• Dateable.in's on location studio setup is a lot better than the traditional studios in many ways yet there are no additional charges for the same. However if you still want to visit the so called photo studio, please pay the studio rental charges (this is a 3rd party service and they charge us too) -  prices vary - let me know beforehand.​

​

Rescheduling

​

• Rescheduling shoots causes disruption to other customers' plans hence I discourage it. Once scheduled, a shoot date and time is cast in stone. However I understand that life is not entirely predictable and hence allow one reschedule for free.

• Repeat rescheduling can be damaging to my reputation and service hence to encourage to stick to the schedule and to discourage rescheduling on a whim, additional ₹ 999 per reschedule are added to the charges from the 2nd reschedule onwards. All reschedules are subject to availability of free slots. 

• I would request you to plan better and not to reschedule if that's possible and yes avoid having to pay anything extra! Thank you for your understanding.

​

Fair Use Policy

* Shoot Duration: The given shoot duration for each package is quite generous and adequate - you'd rarely need more time than that. However for any reason (like extended waiting times or other eventualities) if the shoot gets extended, I charge ₹ 750 per hour as a small reimbursement for my time. I would encourage you to plan better and avoid paying these charges - it is a win, win for both of us.

​

* The number of looks, poses, attires, backgrounds, and the shoot duration are flexible and expected to be in proportion to the total number of portraits you require - this is in the interest of time and effort, both yours and mine.

Fair, judicious use is gold, it is encouraged. I understand honest mistakes happen and I overlook them. I am also intensely aware of and sensitive to  service abuse and misuse. I would urge my customers to avoid such tendencies and discourage it.
